Have you ever been disappointed with Linux? (libretechni.ca)

Personally I haven't. While Linux is imperfect, choosing the right distro makes the rest of the experience straightforward. And with it's whole complexity, I find Linux more user friendly than Windows. Even driver issues, broken shadow file ownership and KDE specifics only made me more confident about my choice to use Linux after I solved everything.

Later versions of windows recognise that the device is removable and don't cache writes. From the users point of view the copy dialog box only closes when writes are complete.

    Yeah, that's really annoying with Linux filemanagers

    Just tell me when you're done and not when the file is completely written into cache, that doesn't help me in any way

    I love my Linux, but it's really annoying to open a terminal to run sync, just to be sure
