That is literally impossible to say, as you said, "hostile vendors" and all. I've had a chance to think about it, and I'm not sure they're hostile, probably just lazy. At any rate, I sense some willful blindness on your part; exactly the kind of thing I was saying holds back progress. You type some terse retort and push your keyboard away, satisfied you've told some stupid normie off- I'm not the one on the wrong side of the philosophical fence here, and my argument is not unique or new.

I'm not sure how you're getting all that from sharing my experience that adding printers in windows is harder than in Linux, in my experience.

There are lots of examples where windows is way easier -- music production comes to mind as stupidly difficult in Linux compared to windows.

Printing is simply a case where Linux wins hands down, and has for years.
