    So glad my job allows me to use Linux as my OS. I do IT, and everybody else in the company uses Windows.

    Constant problems, brutal driver issues, OS crashes and lockups, software installation failures, hardware incompatibility problems, it’s awful.

    Linux at work, Linux at home, such an improved experience.

    I’ll still always love XP though, the last OS from Microsoft that felt like it had a soul.

      I literally haven’t had ANY of those problems running Windows 10 or 11 FWIW, not have any of my friends or relatives.

      I’m not anti-Linux or anything though, have used it for 26 years now, but only briefly on the desktop.

        Work laptops in particular suck, I find. My first one was lagging, freezing, and crashing within months. The second one is three times as expensive but the same brand and is still not happy.

        I also use Windows at home and haven’t had the same experience. I think it’s really manufacturer dependent
