fucking linux

You guys don't even know how pissed I am. I've spend the last 2 days reinstalling ubuntu probably 20 times, and each time things seem to be working fine.

Just when i'm actually surfing around, or just doing the normal shit, watching movies, downloading, and stuff, like that i notice either weird fonts, or lost files....

Lost like half of my 4chan folder, of images, memes, saved threads and shit. I probably lost 500mb of images, and it's because you fucktards always recommend linux, even though windows never does this shit. windows, or even mac, don't require all of this bullshit just to customize your default bootup, and look just fine when you get them installed.

The last thing i want to do is reinstall linux, so what the fuck do i now?? sure, i can reinstall windows, but that doesn't help me get back those files that got erased. i know there are lots of REALLY good file recovery programs for windows, but tell me one that is reliable and good for fucking linux. probably don't have any.

Game don't even work on linux.

Are you saying that your Linux installation is stable? No servers - I am talking of computers that run real desktop stuff such as web browsers and even music players.
Everytime X refuses to start you must figure out what went wrong from the logs and change the config file accordingly. Each time you plug in an USB device, you'll have to look all over the internet for the suitable driver, then recompile your kernel. If you don't find it, don't bother asking, the only answer you will ever get is "Just write the driver yourself you lazy bum". Everytime you need to install a new program, you run the risk of jeopardizing your system by upgrading libraries to versions that are incompatible with your current programs, then you need to spend sometimes up to an hour to read its man page.

If Linux wastes less than 3 hours per week per machine of your time, either you're not actually using your install, either you are running a server with Debian Stable.
People choose Linux because shits goes wrong and you get to dick with computers. What would be the point of using Linux if you never had a reason to go under the hood?
