        Yeah. You show me a Linux user, I’ll show you someone who has worked in tech support with primarily windows machines.

        I’ve been using Linux exclusively for about 6 years now (god…) and I’m terrified whenever I have to tinker with a windows machine at work. everything is so incredibly obtuse and arcane and ive forgotten all about it by now

          I find it utterly confusing.

          I had to troubleshoot a family member’s computer, and the amount of redundant but separate systems floating around in it is insane. A Onedrive integrated into the OS, a separate Onedrive for syncing specific folders, yet another OneDrive to access work resources. 365 for office, 365 for OneDrive, 365 for Teams. Don’t even get me started on Copilots being tossed around everywhere.

          Half of these systems are auto-logged in during startup, the other prompting they need logins, and most of which flag for space issues and subscription notices.

        I definitely know a person or two who use Linux because they are afraid of Windows. But I know more people who are afraid of Windows, yet use Windows anyways.
