It's been too long so I don't remember but there were several things I tried to install that required me to add a new repository, install from that, and then fiddle around with config files to get it to work.

Lots of people swear that Linux is easy but that's never been my experience. It's always command prompts and config files.

It's been years since I last used Linux so maybe things have gotten better. I'll likely be finding out eventually when Win 10 EOL comes because I don't want Win 11.
