Hexbear Linux users are the deep state of China
While I've been considering buying a brand new PC and mobile phone (for absolutely no reason whatsoever; totally a coinkidink that I considered it at this point in time), I decided to also look up what China's own operating system was (because obviously they would have their own operating system; why would they make absolutely everything else and NOT make their own operating system?) and I was like 'ooooh, that looks cool! This Kylin OS!' only to watch a video expounding on it and revealing it's a Linux based operating system.
Hexbear Linux users are to China what Israel is to America CMV
I just want a normal operating system where I double click an app to activate or install it, and it has full functionality no ifs and or buts with my OS, and I can rightclick and get all the necessary functionalities of rightclicking.
sudo install better OS
Stupid dressed up DOS like operating system; yeah cause I really want to type up lines of instructions to do what windows can do with a double click; cause I want to spend two hours googling how to install non-Linux compatible software on Linux, and then spend two hours finding out why the solution didn't work making me feel like Indiana Jones excavating cursed ruins for a treasure you could've gotten at Walmart.
You're viewing a single thread.
I mean if you absolutely must use Windows applications, why not just use Windows? I won't tell anyone
I want a Chinese OS specifically which is why I was hoping they'd made one that was a 1:1 of Windows.
I don't think you know what you're asking for tbh
I admit I don't know how OSes work, but I guess I hoped for something akin to a Windows reskin under Chinese ownership; an OS that functioned exactly like windows, almost like it was a virtual machine or emulator or something; I admit, I haven't the faintest idea how OSes work, but I'd hoped there was a product like that.
Just install Mint or Kubuntu and grab Steam. I can hook you up with useful KDE(kubuntu gui) right click action menu scripts that I use for everything Windows had but Kubuntu was missing. If you go the Mint route most of them are already there for you. AppImages and Deb files behave like exe installers. Just like Windows you will run into issues but someone here could probably help you out. My Grandma could barely use Windows after XP and took to Mint like a pro.
Yeah I second this — I have Linux Mint on the family computer and the non-techies get on just fine with it. The Cinnamon desktop environment is basically a modern remake of Windows XP.
What right click options does Windows have that KDE doesn't come with?

Nice, I haven't thought about zenity in probably a decade lol.
Last time it was probably updated was 10 years ago so you didn't miss anything These kids running their full blown browsers just to capture some basic user settings!!
I have 64gb of ram and I still refuse to use electron apps.
But why
Why does it matter if the OS Chinese?
