If you had a better product than Windows, for free, everyone would use it. You don’t, and you blame everyone except yourselves.
I’ve already guessed you think that, only you don’t give any arguments supporting your opinion.
Because if I can’t use my tools with one OS, but I can with another, then the problem is with the OS that I cannot.
You’ve yourself said there’s no official driver, so the entirety of the described problem is with the hardware vendor.
Scanners are common peripherals my dude. Do you think windows would have sold if it didn’t support scanners?
Windows doesn’t even support browsers, because nobody ported Vimb to it, yet it sells.
That’s how your opinion looks, some piece of hardware without a Linux driver (drivers for Windows are, of course, made by hardware vendors) not working is somehow Linux’ fault.
I agree it’s a Linux problem, but it’s vendor’s fault. Like if someone drops a turd on your head, it’s their fault and your problem.
That last sentence made me laugh out loud and it’s spot on. The amount of reverse engineering or getting drivers to work anyway that happens on Linux is already mind boggling.
If the vendor doesn’t care, that’s just what it is.
I don’t need to, simple market forces make that clear. If you have a free product that is easily available that outcompetes paid products, the market will shift to the free product. If it does not then it isn’t outcompeting the competition.
You don’t know shit about market forces either, and I’m ancap, LOL.
Why would you pay for McDonald’s if Smashburger was free?
If a ride to get Smashburger costs more in time and money than McDonalds. Or if I have certain health problems and there’s no diet Smashburger, but there’s something in McDonalds. Or many other examples.
The first example looks especially fitting if, say, McDonalds got the building with some special municipal permission and Smashburger couldn’t just buy something in similarly available place.
If the manufacturer has no interest in doing it, then who will?
You if you need it. Nobody’s going to do what you need for you. Adoption is not the only or the primary goal.
Are you fucking high? I really don’t even know how to respond to this.
You can respond with thanking me on your knees for taking time to explain how you look and not asking if you are fucking high.
Whining isn’t going to raise your ridiculous OS’s adoption rating, bro.

Yes, the same correct argument.

You have denied it, not refuted it.

I’m not selling anything to you, bro.
