I'm sorry to hear about your situation. It sucks the some systems aren't supported. It's very rare, but I guess you may be in that small group. I'd bet some people could help you make it work, but it may require extra effort. The great thing about Linux is you can make almost anything work if you put in the effort, but if the tools aren't already made that'd mean doing it yourself, which probably isn't an option.

I'm not trying to say Linux is right for you, but Windows does not care about you either. They are leaving everyone behind if they don't follow along. I wish you good luck and good health!

I know, just today on my lemmy home page was a w10 user who had their desktop background image changed and the stupid search bar added to their task bar again after an update. This is why I don't allow my machine to update. It's rediculous!

Linux will be so much better, but it will require some effort and time, and probably some help. I will have to get there, and once I do I know it will be a relief to have an OS that only does what I tell it to!

Thank you for the kind wishes stranger. I wish you health and happiness as well. I am sure you will see me again after I have made the leap, with some silly question or another. :)
