    Not defending the behavior in question, but Linux nowadays is MUCH simpler to understand than Windows or MacOS. It is by far the easiest operating system to change to, and the easiest to learn if you are somehow not familiar with any. From a user standpoint it’s the least “techie” OS now (aside from mobile OS of course).

    What you describe about “needing to take courses” was true ten years ago, it was probably true three years ago. It is just simply not true now.

      I use Arch as my daily driver and it is absurd how easy it is to use.

      Updating all drivers and programs and the system updates in one command is so awesome and convenient.

        Very easy to use… once up and running. But there are other distros out there (Bazzite comes to mind as a good example) that “Just work” on a level even Macs can’t approach. Installation is the only “complicated” part but I’m sure we’ll see some manufacturers installing Bazzite by default in good time.
