Yeah I suppose that sounds about right for you. Have a nice day.

You stated there were better options, I claimed that's not always the case. You said I didn't provide any reasons and browsing is better on Android and iOS, I responded with a couple ways I'm personally affected (out of the many, many possible reasons) and listed a couple ways browsing is categorically not better in those ecosystems, and your response is "well that's your problem dude" and that software engineers created problems with software which... well, no shit? Of course it's my problem, and it's a problem for a huge proportion of the populace. This entire thread of discussion is about the fact that people have problems using other operating systems. Sometimes Windows is the best choice, even if we don't want it to be.

I'm a software engineer in the VR space. Most production tooling doesn't run on Linux or Android or IOS, even if the software I work on might (with great pain). Graphics API support is lacking or nonexistent depending on which platform we're talking about and which API we're talking about. Nvidia cards are dominant, yet the drivers are sub-par on other platforms.

As for browsing specifically, browsing is much less efficient on mobile interfaces than on desktop interfaces and I don't know how you can possibly argue otherwise. Screen real-estate alone is a detriment to the mobile browsing experience, never mind how much more painful and slow input is. I'll do something quick on a phone, but if I need to do anything actually productive I put down my phone and walk over to my desktop.

If all I were using Windows for was running a browser I'd switch over to a Linux distro at this point (as I do for my home server, etc), but there's just too many circumstances where it's just not viable for me.

...depending on what you're using it for.
