What about fact that optiminer does not support all graphic cards (for example vega cards) and that for some cards it does supports it is not optimized (for example 1080ti gives hashrate which is only about 20% higher than hashrate for 1060 3gb, so 20% more hashrate for card that cost 400% more).
Im talking about optiminer on Linux.
That's a legitimate reason to want a miner that supports those cards, however, the Linux version of lolminer proves Windows wasn't
needed. Optiminer lost market share to lolminer due to not meeting consumer demand, which is fair. But while you're need is legitimate, in my opinion, I'm more talking about others that wanted a Windows miner simply because they didn't want to take the time to setup a Linux OS and learn some Linux commands. That's just lazy, imo.
