I understand the frustration when things don’t just work. Also I find it kind of funny when people act like Linux just solved all their problems, despite recurring driver and dependency issues, compatibility problems, etc. These all get hand-waved somehow because it’s not Linux’s “fault” I suppose? Good for the author but the opportunity cost of moving to Linux alone is prohibitive based on the comments I see here, my own experience notwithstanding…

I agree with you that there's some friction involved and a bunch of trade-offs.

The thing is that I absolutely lost it, because of the bugs and the ads, and just wanted something reliable that doesn't nag me all the time.

I know that other people's linux experience may be radically different due to different hardware, so I'll consider myself lucky it all worked out.

Citation needed.

Uncited, I would posit that those complaints haven't really been a thing for at least a couple of decades. And any issues have been far less than in Winland :)

Just read the other comments in this thread, all the evidence you need is in plain sight.

Conversely, I’ve been on windows 11 for work for a few years now with zero issues.
