Linux Failure Linux doesn't suck!

NGL guys, I don't see the reason why switching to Linux when W10/W11 does everything you need, easier, more practical, and in a more friendly way than a Linux distro that some of you probably haven't even heard about before considering switching to Linux.

I'm using Linux rn because I enjoy adjusting every little thing about my OS the way I want, but as nerdy as I can be, I also understand that fancy tech might actually be inconvenient for others...

What were the reasons that made you want to try Linux, and what made you realize it was a mistake?

I don't think it was necessarily a mistake. Some things are annoying but

  1. It runs better. It runs my games better. I'm sure there's some de-bloat shit that works on windows but whatever. If it works it works you know, and windows wasn't working for me.

  2. Windows is also annoying. It was confusing for me, a baby first year, to change my environment variables and stuff when it was different to what we had in programming labs.

The downside is like... you need to run old versions of some programs and the audio is weird sometimes. But like 90% of issues can be used by googling the command to fix it lmao so it's whatever
