Gregory's Server@avon_deer @Jencen Horses for courses really; I find it just as bad doing the opposite and trying to get help for Windows stuff. Rather than actually help you with your problem they just fall back to a set of stock responses, none of which are applicable to the problem but fix 90% of issues, and if that doesn't work they just tell you to reinstall Windows. 🙃
Basically tech support online is shit whatever angle you come at it.
@renbymon @avon_deer Yeah.
Worst I've had is "X software, that only runs on windows isn't working properly"
"Have you tried Linux?" Going on a long rant about how it's better and does A,B,C and through to Z. Neglecting that to do X would require fucking around with kernel stuff.......
When it was jsut a gripe about them changing where a button was or something in the software.
I avoid any tech support from Microsoft like the plague too. Their "Techs" are generally ust reading from a script..... and not actually reading your problem too.
A doesn't work. I've tried B, C, D and E
"Ahh yes. You have corrupt files. Do B. If that doesn't work do C..... etcetc. o.<
@renbymon @avon_deer Yeah.
