I just started using W11 after reading up on how to install it without all the bloat and spyware, and how to configure it to my liking

25 years in and I still don't see a reason to switch to Linux

Meh, it'll take them at least an hour to get their keyboard drivers working 😂

I know you think this is funny but I haven't dealt with a driver issue in linux since I switched to it. However in windows I've sunk hundreds of hours of my life into trying to get a driver working. So that comment is unintentionally funny lol

Could you come fix the built-in SD card reader on my laptop with your magic drivers? Had to give up and buy an external one after even the internet said it will likely never work properly.

Small price for never using windows again though

I didn't say driver issues don't exist on Linux. I said I've had to deal with that shit on windows countless times but not on Linux. Because that's my personal experience.

Christ on a bike mate, hundreds of hours? You're embarrassing yourself 😂

Hope you don't work in IT lmao

Kinda proves you haven't. Also you're probably 15.
