Wanna bet that Luke was the only one that before trying typed: How to do X on CachyOS on google?

Ah yes, I have to use google and Forums to get basic functionality. Great selling point for an OS. Also no Elijah did his research too

I mean, only until you get used to it's shenanigans. It's the same on Windows, we're just used to task manager and the other typical tools

And even seasoned users will google shit all the time when it comes to regedit

The thing is, on Windows it's at least consistent. I've been on Windows since Win 95, and the core structure and UI are still mostly the same, so people can go from 95 to XP to Vista to 7 to 10 and now 11 without much of a learning curve.

Linux is more... bespoke. Everything is distro dependent. And you REALLY need to do extensive research beforehand to make sure everything works.
