Agree with pretty much everything. If I have to fight just to do basic shit why should I bother with it? My tools of the trade don’t work on it, a lot of my games don’t work on it, and my computer itself might not work on it (also AMD here). There’s no value to using it. Just a lot of headaches.

Is there an api for developers?

I tend to use it as a basis for when I’m struggling to describe what I’m looking for and don’t know the right terminology. Sometimes it gives me the answer I need, others I get a few key words to plug into google or documentation.
