> Yes, that's why IT admins in public funded institutions need to be told the standard they are to follow, 80% of the "internet" runs on linux, and GUIs have filled pretty much all gaps, drivers aren't the nightmare it was 20y ago. I tried to switch to Linux a couple of years back. The GUIs were fucked, and varied so much between distributions that everybody just defaulted to the terminal anyway. Hardware support was a major PITA. Everything would "work", but there'd be random issues, like my printer (Brother colour laser) refusing to go above about 50dpi regardless of what setting I put, and some disk mounting service crashing internally if I inserted and removed my SD card reader too many times (nothing crazy, like 2-3 times over an 8 hour session). These pains were on Kubuntu. A more niche (yet still for some reason recommended) distribution that I installed broke the entire desktop environment when I tried to switch from the broken, buggy mess that was Noveau to the properly QA'd Nvidia stuff. Similar experience with my Grandpa, for what it's worth. He hated Windows 10's ads and tracking with a passion, and asked me to install Linux on his machine when Windows 7 became EOL. But nope, everything was broken.
