The last time I had an issue with Linux drivers was in 2002, trying to set up a pppoe connection. I had no smartphone and there were no YouTube, Reddit, wikis, forums etc.

Back in 2016 I helped install some wifi drivers on a friend's laptop in Ubuntu 16.04, which was not really a big deal.

I feel like these memes are made by Windows users :)

i find that the linux experience can vary wildly depending on the hardware you are running it on.

when it works it changes the way you use your computer for the better, when it doesnt its nothing but frustration and broken keyboards

I just think you've had the luck of not having a lot of unsupported hardware on Linux ๐Ÿ˜‚.

Yes, in general, things are OK driver wise, but remember when we had to resort to ndiswrapper to get wifi working... yeah, that was a pain ๐Ÿ˜”.
