    Switch to Linux and spend way more time making sure everything is updated and having to jump through hoops installing things.

      No idea what you mean. I just quickly wanted to update before calling it a night, got a grub update and now it neither boots the default nor the fallback image. I use Arch BTW.

    As someone who has had been around Linux-based people and whenever I have had a single gripe about Windows - it’s this.

    I don’t have a hate boner with Linux, I just feel like Linux is a little too much for the average casual user. Everything is fine until they run into a single issue with Linux, if the bewilderment of not having their familiar easy to run programs that they had on Windows wasn’t a turn off for them from the get-go.

    50% of the time the Microsoft forum help solution for any Windows problem is “Have you tried Re-installing Windows?”
