I am a Linux user, I dual boot Kubuntu and Windows.
On Friday I bought a new game on steam, checked on protondb and it is platinum, tried to launch it and it failed. I tried 4 different proton compatability modes and it failed to launch each time. While I am a sysadmin and am well capable of troubleshooting it, I really just wanted to play that game so I rebooted into windows.
If I hadn’t had that other win11 SSD in my machine, I would have had to not play that game because I had no energy to troubleshoot that on a friday night after fighting with linux all day at work.
Tldr: some times Linux is a seemless as Windows, but not always, even when it is supposed to be and is for others. Even if you have that activate windows watermark.
It’s true. You run one single command in cmd, then follow the prompts. It literally highlights what you probably want too, nevermind the guide online. Even Linux mint you still have to learn where stuff is and what it’s called. That’s not hard, by any means, but this is literally a single command and then you’re back to your routine.
Linux is easier to use than trying to registry hack your way into a local account.

Nah, these “hacks” are very easy. Easier than installing and learning even the most basic of Linux distros.
