And the people who defend Windows like they do - the ones who say it’s objectively better - have probably never had to support it professionally on either the help desk side or system admin side. I’ve done plenty of both, and I absolutely LOATH Windows because of it.

To think that Windows is perfect… My God, what luck they must have had with it. I’ve run into problems where Microsoft themselves were unable to figure out the cause OR the solution, even when paid to do so. We got a refund on that experience, but I have NEVER run into that with Linux or FOSS. Given enough information regarding a problem, I have ALWAYS had someone who will know the answer.
