I'm currently on some pirated LTSC Windows 10 but I'll probably move back to Linux next. It just bothers me how much more effort simple tasks take on Linux, and how a lot of the options emulate the inferior Mac look. Whenever I see the red yellow green buttons on a window it makes me gag thinking about all the money that terrible company has scammed people for.
Such as? I've never had this problem.
It depends of what distribution and overall understanding the mentality being the how to install thing stuff. Most people don't know what's a package manager for example, how to manage multiple disks on the computer etc... While some linux distros are streamlined and made simple, they can feel quite different to windows.
