If Linux works well for you I'm genuinely happy for you, but it's incompatible with what I use a computer for so that's mighty unfortunate.
I'm stuck with beating windows with a pipe wrench.
What's your use case? Just curious
Playing video games and streaming video games. Sure plenty of video games are compatible with Linux. But plenty aren't! Also you know some day to day software.
A lot of people who try to incite me to swap over are like "Yeah bro just abandon all the games you literally own a computer to play to swap to an unfamiliar OS"
There's something to be said about the fact that I'm not super comfortable with doing everything with commands and am used to GUIs and have multiple decades working in windows environments and 0 with Linux. It's not the world's smoothest transition.
Note: I will now be blocking anyone else who tries to "Erm ackshuallly" me on this.
Is this a joke?
No sir that's a mirror
