No Adobe software for Linux, other than Flash (come on Adobe, fix this!) No Microsoft Office for Linux, although Microsoft is pushing Office 365 more anyways. Games are much fewer than Windows (still number in the thousands), and Linux often doesn't get the AAA game releases from companies other than Valve. Weird glitches happen, mostly with graphics-related tasks like switching between a game and the OS. Graphics cards are supported in both open source and proprietary drivers, but installation is anything but user friendly at times. Some computer manufacturers have agreements with Microsoft to block Linux from being installed (Lenovo). Some new or expensive hardware takes a while to develop drivers for.
Microsoft is doing a few interesting thinks which help them and Linux both (VSCode, ASP.Net, Ubuntu in Windows) Many bugs are fixed in following releases Just because it's not supported yet doesn't mean it won't be in the future. Hardware support grows every kernel release, and a device that didn't work last month might magically start working this month. Many applications go above and beyond what Windows can do, just by using the command line. VMs can be used for Windows-only applications and testing Software installation is a breeze with the Gnome Software tool. Steam has growing game library (see con below)įree applications and OS (both in cost and rights)ĭoesn't block app developers from making money if they want, won't restrict you from installing apps Windows often breaks dual-boot systems for no apparent reason (in my experience)įew attack vectors by default, restrictive by default OS (always asks for password to install) Security flaws can go unanswered for years until a major virus pops up, reactive not proactive Most applications cost money or are not open source Usually first to get new applications and games due to user base
