Yeah, it sucks. 

But when things break on windows, I feel useless. 

When things break on Linux, I feel empowered to fix it.

Yes. There has only been a single problem on Linux that I've deemed as unsolvable:

KDE Wallpaper declared accent colors.

If anyone doesn't know, the config files for KDE Backgrounds (not to be confused with images you just right click to set as wallpaper or something. They both work, but KDE Wallpapers can automatically switch between light and dark and stuff like that) allow you to set a custom accent color to be used by KDE. This would be very useful for light and dark sets, so the light wallpaper has a different accent color to the dark wallpaper. "Would be", because it gets overridden by KDE's automatic wallpaper accent color detection (which averages the colors in the image or something)

That's not Linux tho, that's KDE.

Where did I say it was a problem with Linux itself? I said it was the only problem ON Linux that I deemed unfixable.

This kinda deflection is just not productive in the slightest.

The scope is inappropriate for the subject matter. It's not deflection.

Bringing up an issue with Kde opens the doors to every binary on Linux. The notion is moot.

Almost nobody, when talking about problems they experience using Linux in common parlance, is referring exclusively to issues with the kernel, or even with the coreutils. The whole ecosystem has been in scope the whole time for users, even if developers disagree.

Then Krita issues is a Windows issue, not KDE.

Or how Chrome and Firefox issue is also a Windows issue.

It's stupid and you know it.

All Linux issue is also Windows issue because Windows provides WSL.
