Last time I tried Linux I couldn't find drivers for my Wi-Fi antenna. Eventually I found something I had to compile manually, but it just failed to compile so I gave up. I sometimes have to work with Linux at work, but it seems to be a constant uphill struggle with drivers and environments (e.g. I couldn't for the life of me get the validation layers in a Vulkan graphics driver working, had to get a Windows laptop with an RTX GPU). In Windows everything I want to do just works. Ultimately, I want an operating system with minimal friction while using it, and Linux just seems to have a philosophy with a quite different focus.
