Wifi drivers, bluetooth drivers, printer drivers, graphics card drivers. Drivers.
I'm a fan of linux and used it as my primary OS for over a decade. Now Windows 10 is good enough and is less hassle.
- sempron64 6y agoThis is my anecdote, but when using crummy old printers and scanners I've had a lot more luck with Ubuntu just working out of the box with them (with maybe a selection dialog), but I had to hunt down and download the driver software on the Internet on Windows 7. With Windows 10 I've had a better experience where it has generally found drivers through Windows Update. So drivers are mixed bag on any OS, I think.
- boomlinde 6y agoHaving drivers maintained in-tree probably gives Linux an edge over Windows when it comes to old hardware.
