The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

    Everything I know about Linux I learned troubleshooting a problem. And I still feel like I don’t know shit about the OS. After so long with Windows, Linux feels like living in a country where you don’t speak the language; everything is harder than it needs to be.

    If the day comes where games are as easy on Linux as they are on Windows, I’ll give desktop Linux another shot.

    This said, I’ve self-hosted on a Debian box for years.

      I recently switched for the first time, and have been using EndeavorOS with KDE on a couple year old laptop, and my experience has been the complete opposite. It’s fantastic. I feel like this is what using a PC is supposed to be like. Before Microsoft fucked it all up.

      honestly, I have experienced the opposite lately. These days, anything I’m looking to do in Linux has already been done and someone has written instructions for it. If it requires digging in to any nitty-gritty, there’s usually decent documentation as well. Windows has so many opaque and propriety processes, and opens so many network connections that I am not entirely sure what the OS is doing most of the time.
