This comment seems unnecessarily brutal and reads like it is written by someone who knows nothing about Linux.
If anything, keep your mind open and never say never.
- doublerabbit 2y agoI'm a Unix admin. I've used Linux for over 15 years ever since the age of 13, where a dutch hacker gave me a box debian. Kernel 2x was my first setup. Icepack Linux was my first Linux OS: https://distrowatch.com/table-mobile.php?distribution=icepack https://distrowatch.com/table-mobile.php?distribution=icepac... Where Matrox S3 drivers were something you needed to modify yourself and Xorg was XFree86. If I was to gloat; sadly my open mind has become a cynical one a long time ago.

- okanat 2y agoI used Linux as my primary OS for 15 years and currently earn money from maintaining an internal distro that is compiled from scratch. I can go as deep into the kernel as I want and if the business needs I can change or patch a package. The more I gain experience in Unix family systems the more I discover how haphazardly those are made. I agree with the commenter 100%.
- luyu_wu 2y agoIt's not like Windows is any less haphazard (if not more)! I think you'd be stunned by the OOTB experience of distros meant for newcomers （Fedora or Vanilla come to mind).
