honest to G-d the only reason I don't have my main PC at my business as a linux machine is because my dad and I need quickbooks.
Shut yo ass up israelite
How dare your thin israelitey lips utter the name of Godan all fadir
quickbooks has an online SaaS version. use that. or have a windows VM and use the desktop version. or test it out with wine and see if it runs okay. etc.
Shut up israelite
>WinRAR
7zip is better.
7zip has better compression and decompression (best speed / efficiency)
By all other measures WinRAR is better, its comfy
Also WinRAR is not far away from 7zip performance.
>IrfanView
good
>PDF reader
all PDF readers are shit because PDFs are shit
>MPC-BE
lmao, it still mpv
>foobar2000
good

ran out of energy at the end of your bait huh
>7zip is better at the tasks the software is intended to handle but uhhhhhhh MUH SOUL
sumatra can handle all ebook abominations such as pdf, mobi, djvu, epib and lots of more while still being the fastest possible software
open a beefy pdf and you'll find out
acrobat XI that came with CS6 master collection works on my machine
winrar is not comfy it has ads
It doesnt so
let me know when 7zip can search inside archives
>IrfanView
was nice, used it back on windows. Would like to have something like it on linux.
>Sumatra PDF Reader
dunno
>MPC-BE
I used mpv already back on windows because it ran way better than anything I could get with MPC
>foobar2000
nope, Winamp all the way.
>color temperature adjuster
never used one
>WinRAR
who cares which program was used in background while I was using the explorer to extract something.
So, basically, 1/6

You don't need that in Linux. Just install from the package manager.

Irfan is not just image viewer, load it up with plugins zip and it opens almost literally any file, especially corrupted ones. Extremely based for small size, speed and lossless editing capabilities
>best PDF reader
Sumatra still the fastest it can be
>best video player
Is MPC-BE actually good? Using MPC-HC from K Lite pack and it's struggling so much with certain things, can't even sync the subtitles to the movie properly.. Went back to VLC for the features

WinRAR sucks ass with popups, still on 7zip mainly
You are literally autistic if you install any of these
even WinRAR??
Especially
Windows has definitely best file managers as well, Linux ones still are just pretty basic
bzip2 beats 7z
Sumatra is correct and mogs all linux alternatives.
7zip >>>> Winrar
>foobar2000
no, the best audio player was Winamps version from the year 1999 or something (its still Windows though)
Notice how these are all things you have to hunt down and install yourself. Linux distributions come with sane, useful defaults and you can install different ones if you want without googling
>you can install different ones if you want without googling
It's not 2008 anymore anon, windows has had a package manager for years, even longer if you count the MS store
A script that downloads an installer isnt a package manager
If we don't count the fact that Linux doesn't have any sane standards, then yes.
Otherwise, it doesn't matter what software is included in your distro of choice.
When you need to actually do things on your computer, you begin to realize that Linux is incapable of doing that.
So I'll prefer to hunt down all that software myself, while being able to work without hiccups or compromises of any sort.
Linux will never be ready for the desktop.
P.S: enjoy your X11/Wayland situation.
>never used linux before
used linux before
>When you need to actually do things on your computer, you begin to realize that Linux is incapable of doing that.
Loonix-moron can't read, what a surprise!
Listen, moron, if I'll actually start to provide you examples of how software developers can't guarantee stability on Linux distributions because of differences between them; or how there no standards to implement some functionality that needs to depend on the said standards, you'll start to cry.
The truths is: Windows/MacOS do have standards. Linux don't. So as long as software works better on Win/Mac, I'll stick to them, thanks.
Sorry not reading your blogpost
>zoom-zoom can't process posts that are more length than single sentence total
Goodbye, lmao.
Don't get me started on complete system (Linux) freeze due to memory management/X11 fundamental flaws in high-load system scenarios.
>Don't get me started on complete system (Linux) freeze due to memory management/X11 fundamental flaws in high-load system scenarios.
Lol yeah because you can't show me examples. Every blue screen happens under normal loads
>Lol yeah because you can't show me examples
Login under X11 session.
Run Minecraft. Load SEUS PTGI shaders.
Play and eventually witness complete system hanging. Reboot your PC and come back here to admit you was wrong.
Shouldn't be too hard to reproduce and check for yourself, right?
>Login under X11 session.
>Run Minecraft.
Kek. Didnt even read further
>There's no need in X11 (which is also shit as Wayland, but at least works)
>There's no need in Nvidia on Linux (which is dominating on gaming GPU market and also provides stuff like CUDA and such)

This is why Linux will always be in under 5% desktop market share. Because of you and other morons that are like you.
he probably doesn't play minecrap, why are you so moronic? If you're making the claim then give the proof yourself.
>If you're making the claim then give the proof yourself.
I'm aware about this, but, I'm not going to install Linux just to post a proof. And that doesn't make me denied of any rights to state something. The world is not black and white. Else, you can see how easy and wonderful this is for Linux users if no one can accuse them of their beloved OS failures because no one is going to use it. Again, easy and wonderful to just simply ignore all the issues in blind fanaticism while denying experience of those who fled back to Win/Man for a their good reason.
I'm not even asking any of Linux users here to install Renoise and go here to understand why software works better on Win/Mac by seeing this example: https://forum.renoise.com/t/i-made-a-script-for-linux-renoise-users-that-lets-you-play-notes-with-pc-keyboard-while-focused-on-a-plugin-window/60758
Every DE is different and Linux as a whole doesn't have any standard Renoise devs could've used to implement functionality that works on Win/Mac. And that's why any sane person will prefer to use anything but Linux.
>developers can't guarantee stability on Linux
Yeah I remember all the times I saw this on my linux PC
linux stability is impeccable if the hardware is in good working order, so gotta agree there. also windows has always been the OS of idiots, but even their bluescreens now treat you as if youre a fricking moron. frowny faces? no useful dump info? nothing says 'your a fricking moron and cant understand this anyway' like ":( oh noes! your peecee is broky woky!"
to be fair, blue screen messages were always shit and did not help. But instead of fixing that they now insult you.
Irfanview was legit amazing man I miss it so much...
Firefox's pdf viewer, VLC, peazip work fine enough for my use cases I am not missing anything.
No idea what foobar and flux are.
5/6
>best audio player
AIMP
Also the best file pickers
Modern Windows? Yes, mostly.
Deadshitos? Not at all (in this case even loonix is actually better).
If the thread was about productivity software then (modern) Windows would be obviously superior here.But the software that OP mentions is really basic and you probably wont see too big difference between this and linux equivalents.
I've been using picrel since 2005. One of the main reasons I cant switch to linux, I can't accept other player.
audacious has winamp skins
None of this matters, linux software is perfectly fine and the only "windows" software that actually matters like Brave, qBittorrent, JDownloader2, Steam, Discord is available on Linux. The issue that silly billy STUPID FRICK linux monkeys have, is the fact that these moronic silly billy funny guys STILL haven't figured out text rendering. It's very silly when I use a shitty linux distro and see my screen become 10 times blurrier and harder to use compared to Windows.
