Does anyone make a serious OS for people who need to get real work done on their computer anymore?<p>Some recent frustrations with the big 3 OSs:<p>1. MacOS: The File&gt;Save dialog has a unchangeable 35 character limit for what can be viewed in the file name field. WTF?! It&#x27;s like these jokers have never worked in a real office where people create documents with dictated naming conventions like [Customer Name]_[Project Name]_[Project subtask]-[Date]. Maybe they think it is a way to force businesses to use Tags? Dear Apple, your OS seems toy like.<p>2. Linux: There is an age old Ubuntu bug (which bleeds into many Ubuntu based Distributions) where the installer wipes out the bootloader of a drive that you aren&#x27;t even installing the OS on. Dear open source community: your desktop OSs are still hobbyist tweaker mode. I<p>3. Windows: First data mining telemetry and now you are going to show me ads? Dear MS, you keep trying to be Google or Facebook and all it has done is undermine a once serious OS.<p>(note that this is just a &quot;what pissed me off this week list&quot; and not intended to be a comprehensive criticism)
