Oh to be a young lad experiencing linux for the first time again
Not knowing how anything works, being scared by errors that you don't know how to get around or deal with, not knowing alternatives for your former favourite apps to do things quickly, wondering if you get the peripherals you currently own to run?
naah thanks mate, hard pass.
I feel like this supporting Windows servers and navigating Win 11/12 clients at work these days.
Yes, but Windows is normal and therefore all of its myriad problems are just part-and-parcel with using a computer and can be ignored. Linux is not normal, though, so the slightest roadbump is an instant deal-breaker.
