The netflix complaint is a pretty confusing one. The last time I used windows was back when Netflix was a DVD rental service, and while there was a time when you had to go get Google Chrome to stream via Netflix on linux, even that hasn't been the case for quite a long time. I swear half the people in these threads tried like one distro ten years ago, ran into one issue, and sees this as a knockdown argument that normal computer users can't tolerate a single learning curve. Meanwhile, any time some acquaintance tries to do a simple task they've never done before on the OS they claim is easy to use (whether this be windows or macOS), it ends up being a huge hassle anyway, and sometimes there is simply no solution to the problem they want to solve
Like, yes, most things have a learning curve. I have yet to encounter any evidence that Windows having a particularly easy one for anything is more than propaganda
