Windows has gotten so bad that my family, who has been reticent about the switch since 2004, has finally given in and is swapping! So far I got them to agree with ChromeOS Flex (booo, but still better than windows) and Bazzite!

      I was part of tech support for work until last year.

      My list of ridiculous bugs is quite long… Even down to basics like the microphone, using Microsoft office at all, windows explorer, and opening teams had bugs where people’s work laptops were unusable for day to day tasks.

        I may have just had ridiculous luck to avoid all bugs on both linux and windows

        Most of the bugs i have seen on linux were actually from a friend i convinced to move to linux

      I guess the base version of windows is relatively ok but Microsoft Office and Overdrive/SharePoint are both completely unusable. Which is insane considering they are industry standards.

      Although Linux seems to be generally much more stable in my experience. Of course it depends on the distro.
