I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

What isn’t it compatible with? All these people making baseless complaints about Linux driving me crazy. Most people are just too lazy to Google an error code. I’m convinced there are hidden Windows shills in the fediverse like undercover Russian spys.
Seriously people act like googling an error is the end of the world AND windows never ever makes a user troubleshoot. Like dude windows constantly fucks up and you gotta figure shit out
Lol, are you serious? Any Adobe software, Microsoft Office, plenty of games (especially those that rely on anticheat software). That’s everything that comes to mind right away, there’s definitely more than that when it comes to specialized software. And no need to reply with “but there are good alternatives/use an older version”, this is software that is required for work and it’s industry standard for a reason.
Industry standard so you can use Windows on a work computer and be free to use Linux at home.
I’ve been doing that for more than half a decade now, but the point still stands: the claim that Linux is compatible with everything is just not true, and while there are plenty of people for whom it will work perfectly fine, there are also lots of situations in which it is not a feasible solution.
Does not run Creo. Does not run DCS. Does not run Destiny 2. These are most of what I do that needs a useful computer versus just a ipad or something. Therefore, a Linux PC would only be useful for blender and firefox. Only being able to use 40% of programs means a Linux PC is basically e waste already.
