But windows it's a pain to do everything everything is a pain in the ass getting anything working is a pain in the ass I no longer support any system with windows installed even as dual boot it causes too many problems it didn't used to be like this like five years ago there's and argument for what you're saying and fifteen years ago it was completely true but its just not now it's not just that Linux isn't all there its that windows is fucking unusable now

It does do weird shit all and stuff breaks all the time. They created the ultimate vendor lock by not having any competition in the enterprise space. You also don't work in a vacuum, you interact with other businesses and need to be compatible with them.

Don't crash out because businesses are locked into Windows. If you are ever given a budget and told to make all of the tech here work, you will not move a business to Linux. At home I use Arch by the way.
