No more excuses, it's time to try Linux!
-
If you've ever built your own PC, if you've ever had to 'nuke and pave' your Windows install, if you've been a PC gamer for any length of time, or if you're in any way/shape/form a coder, I cannot stress this enough: Linux is better than Windows.
That's not to say it's perfect or that every distro will suit your specific use-cases. I can guarantee you that the opposite is true. However, if you're any of the above or you've in any way recognized that the way things are in the Windows world is not how they ought to be... you're ready to give Linux a try.

13:27 It's time to make the switchI love Linux but the Linux nerds seem completely blind to the technical problems. It's simply not usable by the vast majority. Developers/companies have to support hundreds of distros. There are a dozen different file formats. I just got a new TV but had to return it after realizing that HDMI 2.1 is not supported on Linux. Way too many things depend on the terminal. Hardware support is limited. Etc. etc.

no, they don't. just ha e to support flatpak.
-
yes there are, but just support flatpak.
-
HDMI 2.1 is a real issue.
-
the most common options are accessible through a GUI. The last time I had to use the terminal was months ago.
-
hardware support is better than windows in many ways and, yes, worse in others. Have older hardware that the OEM no longer supports? That thing will probably work better on Linux than it ever did on Windows. That's my experience, anyway
