I've been using Windows since 3.0
Windows has a bunch of privacy and evil empire issues. But as far as just using it? It's been pretty fucking stable since XP days compared to any other OS out there. MAC technically is more stable but only because they tightly control the hardware. You can install Windows on an insane variety of hardware.
Linux? First, please link me to the "Linux OS" oh right you can't. Linux is a collection of 50+ (more?) OSs with wildly different UIs, functionality, and issues. Don't get me started on installing software. Each has its repo or multiples or flatpaks or whatever the hell Ubuntu uses.
Hell only a few distributions even support (and not well) the most popular GPU maker on the market for the last 30 years. You know graphics are kinda important? Now that's what I consider a massive issue to throw at users. And no the end user doesn't care if that's Nvidia's fault or not.
I just installed Linux on a older MSI couple months ago. I spent like 3 hours reading online and trying 4 different distos before I got one that worked. Then oops keyboard lights are sol... Install a game, oops again the default install directory doesn't work with add-ons because the distro. was immutable. So back to researching. And I'm fairly tech savvy.
So even in 2025 "Linux" isn't ready for the desktop for your average user. Now that is a silly claim.
Please go back to windows. We don't need you.
