I remember something like 8-10 years ago I spent DAYS figuring out how to get legacy nvidia drivers installed on Linux. Turns out you needed a specific proprietary kernel module, for a specific version of Linux, and retrofit that onto modern Ubuntu which expects a much more recent kernel version. That was not fun, but you can't really blame Linux for that.

MSVC
doesn't
support
x64
inline
asm
(
this
is
one
of
the
reasons
why
Spring
has
no
64-bit
executable
on
Windows.
streflop
requires
it.
the
other
is
because
building
with
msvc
is
a
megaton
shitfuck
is
general,
even
with
cmake
support
and
vcpkg)

- Visual Studio's clang/gcc support is too buggy to use, and gcc support is VERY partial. You can't even target windows with gcc on visual studio. ON WINDOWS.

- MSVC is completely non-conformant to the C++14-17 standard. things that should compile don't, and things that shouldn't do with absolutely no warnings. They brought in '/permissive-' recently (as in, 2 weeks ago recently) but I shouldn't need a flag to say I want portable code.

- user permissions are an absolute clusterfuck. your account with 'admin' privileges isn't actually admin, the admin account isn't even admin, SYSTEM is admin, also the admin account is different from the user with 'admin' privileges. Instead of sudo and user groups in windows you have 2 fake admin accounts and the SYSTEM admin account you need a special tool to access
