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.

It's not a kernel thing, more like a libinput thing. Libinput has an option to make it autoscroll, and if you're on KDE, you can find the setting under mouse settings.

    Libinput allows you to activate omnidirectional scrolling by holding the middle mouse down, which is not the same behaviour as windows / (mac?) . It's confusing since both features have the same name.
