yea and if u think that 'switch' is not deidcated time to learn then idek. im not saying windows is easier or its bs its easier to bypass. but each step of window's bullshit for a used to user is gonna be less effort than a switch. if someone cant do that effort (for any reason), there isnt a way around it

i haven't done serious it work since xp and still any troubleshooting and even searching for personal computer answers is still far easier on windows. the fundamentals are fundamentals especially when you watch them get more complicated since dos. hide and seek and tricking windows is a familiar game. whereas linux will always be somewhat strange despite having used them equally as long and the more recent.

hmm, yea i do see that windows just has been similar enough since its early days. with just more hidden and "renewed" same things. diversity and changes in linux are quite different from that. ubuntu's early days probably wont translate experience into current ubuntu, windows 98 is gonna translate atleast a bit to windows 11
