@itsfoss
It returned ownership of my computers to me.
I can choose an appropriate distro for each computer I own.
I am not only allowed to, but actually encouraged to, tinker with the inner workings of Linux.
I choose which software I want to support financially.
I am not supporting a morally bankrupt company.
The community rocks! -
@itsfoss it's completely free
-
@itsfoss One-click updates of both OS and applications together at a time of MY choosing.
No wait for 30 minutes
No separate apps to track available updates
No need for license keys
No need to register or pay*
No need to restart (usually)*I donate to several projects but I won't get cut off if I can't / don't
-
@itsfoss Adding to all the other good reasons. Lack of enshittification for the sake of selling some other product almost nobody wants.

@itsfoss Freedom, it respects me, it let me use my hardware for myself instead of taking most of it for spyware, and it allows me to do whatever I am able to because of my technical skills without bs barriers. And it is objectively superior.

@itsfoss I like the possibility to contribute and be part of the community. From commenting problems faced and getting help to contributing with either ideas or code changes.

Hold the phone
You can roll your own
Not just fork or patch
You can build it from scratch
Try that with Windows
Not as simple as you'd suppose
Linux is a genre and not a single thing
If you'd like to make the angels sing
You can be the one the book to write
It's out of sight
No, that isn't LLM.
