Honestly I’d love for more Linux-only apps to be available on Windows, so, when I’m forced to use it, I can still get the same awesome libre apps I’m enjoying on Linux.
Despite that, I still haven’t had the balls to open a single issue anywhere to support Windows 👀Just use WSL
Give me ls on the cmd for fuck sake.
Works well on windows 10+ in powershell
as long as you don’t try to pass it any flags, that is. M$ defined ls etc. as straight aliases to the equivalent PowerShell commands that have their own flag system, so if you ls -l it will puke
Well, they can compile, usually it’s under MIT, AGPL etc
Windows users have never heard that word before. Compile? Whats that? An app?
Can’t think of any applications that I use in Linux that aren’t available on Windows.
A lot of terminal apps tend to skip windows, ungoogled chromium doesn’t have a official windows release
A lot of open source projects do have windows versions, and the big projects that come to mind like blender or Firefox definitely do… but there’s a a lot of little pieces of software that don’t. One example that comes to mind for me is the Dino XMPP client… Linux only for now, unfortunately!
I remember having issues with Wireshark on Windows since it doesn’t include a lot of libs that it can use to monitor traffic. Does that count on the list?
There was a time when the Freezer devs didn’t make a windows version of some updates, and their solution was to use it via WSL. So I never used it again.
People telling you “I would like to use a Mac so much but I need Windows”. Well fuck you Tiffany I dont care
I do not understand the meme. Do you mean complaining about absent system requirements?
Windows users complaining that a Linux (or at a stretch, even Mac) app doesn’t have a Windows version.
