    I used Linux for my work PC for a year and had endless problems. If it was my personal pc that would be fine but I was wasting time that I should have been using to complete my work, instead spending that time debugging constantly changing problems

      Mine has been super smooth as a workstation for 7 years. But I think that is the fragmentation issue with Linux. I chose a distro based off of a corporate one and random dude uses Hannah Montana Linux expecting same results.

        True, the solutions people would give to my problems almost always involved installing a new disro, and usually it was a different distro in each answer

        I think you’re born either able to use Linux trouble free or able to use Windows trouble free

        In my spare time nobody is going to ask me to justify why I delayed a meeting by 10 minutes because my screenshare wasn’t working

          Fair enough. I feel like both of my time, working and spare, is worth more than fiddling with Linux. I want to use my computer when I want to use it. Not fight it.

        Ssshh. Let’s not give away that little hint - there may be bosses present.

        I learned Linux on the boss’ dime and it created tons of career opportunities.
