Such as?

I switched because Windows never works, it would take about a month after installation to get it into a stable state with wifi. But games would be laggy, task manager wouldn’t report accurate usage, and things would crash constantly

On Linux I just installed and it worked

That’s on top of being more user friendly for installation and use. Why are Windows commands so verbose? Why do you have to specify an install location instead of using the one you are in? Why is there no graphical package manager?

Like I get saying x doesn’t have a Linux version, but I don’t see Linux not working

Of the 4 main games I tend to play, the only one with Linux “support” is CS. That said, my frametimes were abysmal and the game was unplayable on Linux, even on the same system. I’m sure if I put the time in to get a perfect config it would be just fine, but I’m not spending hours of my time trying to get it working when Windows does the job just fine.

Weird, I’ve never experienced more work to get something working on Linux than Windows
