Here's my stupid reason. I only play video games, I like using mods, I don't use steam and all my games come in .exes from fitgirl lol. I'm sure it's possible to do it on Linux. I'm certain it's more difficult.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Why are you using that shitty kitchen sink that came with the house? You can get a much better sink and install it yourself. Also, the audio system that came with your car sucks. Just install a new aftermarket one, it’s not that hard bro.
But my two kicker 12"s, kenwood head unit, and JL audio speakers are better than the broken tape deck that used to be in my 2002. And it wasn't that hard to just install myself, bro.
And linux was better on my 2015 Toshiba Satellite with 8gb DDR(was it even 3?) that outright refused to run windows 10 because it was so bloated, because Linux ran. By the time I got to upgrading the PC, why would I have gone back to windows after tasting true freedom?
