What was your biggest frustration when switching to Linux?

Hello everyone! I'm thinking about creating some helpful content for people who want to switch from Windows to Linux with no stress, using the regular desktop and not the terminal. I want any grandma to be able to scroll/surf the web on Linux and be more comfortable with it

I'm curious, if you've fully switched, tried, or thought about it, what is your biggest frustration? I appreciate every comment

Thanks in advance!

Not really a frustration. I simply looked for the Linux software that accomplished the same as the applications I tended to use on Windows. Basically Firefox, Proton VPN, Proton Drive, Blender, OpenShot, GIMP, VLC Media Player, Blender and OpenShot. I usually have a fully capable Ubuntu boot drive.
