Have a mouse? You need to find a driver Oh Is that a keyboard? Yeah you'll need to get a driver for that too. Oh you have a monitor now? Guess what?.. Yeah go find a driver. But wait, there's more. Oh you want to run that software? Yeah you're gonna need to search for an hour for some random file so you can run it.

Well, that was my experience about 4 years ago, no idea which distro, but I just upped, left and felt warm and cosy in my fat bloated windows 🤷‍♂️

None of that was true 4 years ago. Or 10 years ago. Or 15 years ago. You are a potato.
