Yeah no, I made my home teather/Plex server computer use Linux and I’m constantly having issues with it. Getting the 5.1 audio to work properly through HDMI was impossible and everytime I try to use it I have to un plug and re plug the HDMI cable or it won’t recognize the tv.
Not to mention the 6 different Nvidia driver versions I had to go trough before it would actually output image after not being recognized. With most of them I had to reboot the machine
And I also use Ubuntu on my work laptop and I’m constantly fighting it whenever I dare use my Bluetooth headphones (Why does the entire system hang when the audio drivers hang???) and having no middle ground for windows stealing focus is annoying as fuck.
Don’t get me wrong I’d like to take Ubuntu over windows any day of the week but don’t tell me it’s seamless because it isn’t. It has a lot of unresolved issues and requires a shit ton of tinkering to do things that are done with a couple of clicks on windows
Plus good luck having legacy support for ancient financial software using wine
Other than VR sadly, but it’s really damn good for everything else I do. If only I didn’t have an Nvidia card though it’s given me so many headaches. >:(
I’d agree now. I’ve been 100% Linux since February and I love it. I’ve tried for 20 years to go to Linux and there was always something that made me go back to Windows. Now, no problems at all.
As near-seamless as Windows? I’d argue it’s already there!

Don’t worry, I have an AMD card and it gives me other, more different headaches. Headaches all the way down.
