you know what the problem is with getting people on linux?
they are not motivated to take care of their computers, they don't care about learning how anything works or how to troubleshoot even basic shit
and that's fine, actually. Do you want to learn how to do maintenance work on your car? How to tune it? How to do repairs? No, of course not, because repairing and maintaining cars requires tools, is filthy work at times and you actually need to know how to disassemble and reassemble the stuff you're working on. I don't fucking care to do all that shit. I don't have the space or motivation for it.
So yea, makes sense that some people don't like doing the same tedious shit but for computers. They just want the thing to work and to do what it needs to. So I can't really blame anyone for not wanting to make the miracle hop to some other system they don't know shit about and deal with whatever stupid problems they might run into. Because I wouldn't do it either.
And that's really the problem of linux. It doesn't have a "just fucking works" type of workflow. Most things tend to work, but linux has the problem where every full moon or so, something goes wrong, and it goes wrong in the way where the solution is to do random terminal shit and about 2 hours of getting annoyed by stack overflow posts. Are they difficult? No, they just take some googling, and most veterans will probably have this type of shit committed to memory already. Is it annoying? Very.
So most people just choose to deal with microsoft's bullshit. I just wonder how long before windows has worse problems than linux.
