Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I switched 14 years ago but it really is shocking realizing just how much you were either used to or sort of worked around dysfunctionality with Windows because…that's just the OS.
