Compulsory customer service for a couple years might make retail customers less miserable to deal with overall.

I can’t give up my Stream Deck plugins. I don’t trust that that Linux port thing supports all the plugins I use.

Thank you for giving me 3 huge reasons not to switch, cause I’ve been a bit tempted lately.

Literally the only annoyance I had with it initially was that I preferred my taskbar at the top of the screen, and you can’t move it, at least not without janky registry hacks, on Windows 11.

I’ve since gotten over it, because for me and the vast majority of people, it’s functionally identical in almost all cases.

The only other thing I can think of that’s still a rare annoyance is that sometimes, completely at random, Windows Explorer, if you’ve just left a window open in the background for a while, will just rip focus from whatever other thing you were doing.

Yes, they’re trying to shoehorn their copilot AI thing into the UX, but that was so easy to disable and forget that I refuse to call it a real problem, myself.

Literally viewing this thread while laying in bed with a FFXIV cutscene playing on my Deck right now.

It’s so cozy playing stuff on this thing, even when I have an extremely powerful gaming PC less than 5 feet away.

And when I go over to my girlfriend’s house, I just bring it with me, instead of having to lug a whole laptop over there and get it set up just to mess around with something casual that I wouldn’t wanna run on my phone.

If they want a third option, I usually recommend Brother, and even more I tend to recommend used/refurbished. We just don’t carry those in my store.

God, the amount of times I’ve had to explain the EcoTank vs HP math to customers in my store, and then STILL have them pick an HP is fucking baffling.
