I did.
I said Steam downloads slowly. Why would I make the distinction of Steam if I meant the entirety of the Linux OS?
Also I changed to Manjaro and Steam still refuses to download quickly. So much for “just working”.
Insufferable FOSS/Linux nerds are ruining Lemmy.

You’ve literally edited every single one of your comments, we can see the pencil icon. Don’t sit here and act like you didn’t.
You’re also a gaslighter.
It’s because you are overly confident in the ignorant and inaccurate conclusions you’ve drawn.
Tell me which conclusions I have drawn and what is inaccurate? I’d love to hear.
but you said everything just works?
Here’s a fresh image showing everything at once, also.
I am waiting for your excuses.
Notice how I didn’t call you names once? Grow up.
Here’s Windows today downloading at 1.1Gbps. Keep in mind, the download finished so quickly, it didn’t have time to reach 1.9Gbps.
Here’s Linux reaching a max of 125Mbps, as of RIGHT NOW.
Continue to be insufferable and make excuses for your terrible OS.
I’ve been Googling for hours, and people say to disable IPv6 and install DNSMASQ. Neither fixed it.
Honestly might just go back to Windows. I can’t continue to waste my life troubleshooting the most basic shit in the world. It’s not like my entire PC is slow, it’s just Steam.
Perhaps I will try Linux again for the 80th time in a few months to see where it sits then.
You’re mad at me because I said Linux doesn’t just work, and I followed it with proof.
You’re hostile and gross. Enjoy coping.
You probably fucked something up and are blaming Linux not “just working.” I’ve installed many distros on many machines, my servers, my laptops, my desktop I’m on right now… they all connected at full speeds. In other words, it just works.
I literally clicked “install”. But yes, please, blame me. That’s how you push away new users, by blaming them, instead of understanding things don’t “just work” on Linux.
My browser getting the full speed shows that it’s not my connection being set to half duplex.
My web browser gets the full 1900Mbps.
I don’t expect you to help me. The Linux community doesn’t help, they just sit there and attack people, and then wonder why their OS gains 0.000001% market share every year.
Also I didn’t talk like a moron. I said Linux doesn’t “just work”, and the irony is that you refuse to help me fix something on linux that should “just work”.
I am literally using Linux right now. Busy spending all my hours trying to fix it and make it work.
Why does Steam only download at 100Mbps max, when Windows downloads at 1500Mbps? Would appreciate any help trying to make basic functions work. Thanks.
You know you can use multiple operating systems and stop shilling for one, right?
So Linux doesn’t “just work”. People in here with PC hardware and claiming they have issues. The “solution” is to buy different hardware.
Guess what? Both of those pieces of hardware just work on Windows.
Cope, though.
I love this thread.
Linux users constantly talk about how Linux just works and Windows is garbage, but then half these comments are talking about how you should buy an entirely different computer to make Linux run with FEWER issues.
Windows may have it’s problems, but I don’t need to buy an entirely new PC to make it work. AMD, Nvidia, Intel, doesn’t matter. It just works.
Most average people are afraid of the command line, and really want a GUI for everything. Many of these people’s first exposure to Linux could scare them away depending on the distro they happened to choose, I think.
Or it’s the fact the community is so toxic?
Every computer, doesn’t matter brand or hardware, never works 100% out of the box on Linux. Doesn’t matter which distro.
You ask online, and people scream at you to run terminal commands or go back to Windows.
You run a terminal command that breaks your system, and people blame you for running random terminal commands…
You go back to Windows, and people say “Linux is so friendly, you don’t even have to touch the terminal anymore if you really don’t want to!”
Rinse and repeat.
Context matters. You’re being disingenuous.
And I even attached a screenshot of the Linux desktop.
It’s clear that I’m saying that I’m spending hours fixing Linux to make Steam (on Linux) download at full speed, while (Steam on) Windows downloads at full speed.
