Ugh. I hate it when people parrot this claim.

Many modern Linux-based operating systems are just as easy to use as a typical Microsoft Windows operating system these days (certain distros could probably even claim they're easier to use!), and one can get by without ever touching Terminal or doing anything unusually "technical"... The option is still there of course, and many Linux users (myself included) prefer to use Terminal and things like that; but in 99% of cases, you can get by just fine without ever going down that path.

What needs to happen is that the Linux Community needs to shakes this "It's so technical most everyday users can't use it" reputation, because it's a reputation that's simply not true anymore.

I've been on Linux for few years now, and I've had harder to fix issues on it than on Windows, such as software/OS slowly breaking every few updates - KDE has a list of issues for me that I can't seem to find peolople talk about (for example I cant switch displays without plasmashell completely breaking and needing to be terminated, or kwin just deciding to eat up all CPU power)
Web driver related problems were especially hell,
Modding games is way harder sometimes (thankfully Nexus might be tackling that slowly), dealing with Wine can still be dependency hell if you decide to run .exes off the net, winetricks is great but the average joe wouldnt want to use that.
Not to mention I've had countless liveCDs suddenly crash on me when left on idle when trying to distrohop, no matter the distro/usb drive/port used.

Dont get me wrong I love Linux and would never go back to Windows even though Ive also had to leave good amount of games and software behind, but I'd say the above can really ruin someone's experience, I'm scared to see how pipewire is set up now on my install lol it started giving me issues as well after a certain system update

Quoting: Purple Library GuySo I heard that Intel's fortunes started to turn to crap after they got themselves their first MBA CEO, instead of an engineer. Just like Boeing.

Suddenly it all makes sense
