Why Loonix still sucks in 2026

Main reasons why timestamped:
0:39 - Application distribution is still bad. Self updating apps don’t exist. No universal way to install an app from a publisher.
1:23 - Over-reliance on the terminal. Simple things require commands that aren’t needed on Windows.
2:02 - It's janky. A simple update, package installation or uninstall can lead to your system breaking.
2:43 - Little profession software. Professional software doesn’t exist on Linux and FOSS alternatives are shit.
3:28 - Bad Support. When something breaks on Linux, it’s not as simple as clicking repair or installing a driver. It requires support from forums which require you to run random ass commands that *fingers crossed* hopefully fixes the issue at hand.
I would have added on:
Gaming still sucks on Linux. Games with kernel level anti cheat don’t work and gaming performance is worse on it compared to Windows. Crimson desert literally stopped working on Linux after a game update. So many games only work properly on one version of Proton. Startup commands are frequently necessary. Linux gaming is not plug and play.
