Why don't you explain to me why I have not had any problems running 3 servers for the last 5 years. And why I've not had any problems running it on 6 other machines of varying desktops and laptops? Why don't you explain to me why 90% of web and cloud infrastructure chooses Linux because it is so reliable and stable? I do everything in Linux... everything, including recording in OBS and video editing in Lightworks, no problems.

So tell me, why is it only certain users that seem to have a problem with Linux? Why do you think that is? Because it seems to me the really basic users get on fine with it, and the really advanced users get on fine with it. The only people that have problems are Windows power users that have no fucking clue what they are doing, but try things anyways and break things.

You seem like you're trying to avoid acknowledging the fact that you are wrong.

What part of my argument do you think that counters? Because I never said Linux has 100% reliability, I said, Linux is more reliable than Windows. Try to follow what is actually being said instead of setting up strawman arguments.

This part:

You're doing something wrong. Linux doesn't blow up by itself...

Your first line.
