Some people can't see the problem because of the trees.

If your problem is not with windows, but windows at it's core... Then the solution is to move. You also have Mac if that makes you happy

The problem is that Linux just isn't usable for the largest home computing demographic.

Linux users can't even agree on anything significant to make progress on the distros because they'd rather abandon it and try again in a new setting. It feels like a modpack of the month, year, etc, at this point. Unstable, filled with crashes and bugs, even fedora. Incomplete documentation with half defined terms and uses due to the constant splintering. It makes it worse to learn than whatever the fuck is Microsoft's shit documentation.

I guess you too only see the trees. A solution is not to leave the forest but to bend the trees to your will. Wherever the forest is, instead of cowering before it. A shoddy tradesman blames his tools and all that.

They're downvoting you though, so that means they're right and Linux is perfect and everything runs on it with no manual work needing to be done at all. We're just idiots of course.

The community always says Google, but yet don't understand that the issue is a language barrier.

From speaking, living, and understanding in this architecture. You lose all contextual understanding and with it the ability to word your problems.

The flatpacks have definitely revolutionized Linux for home usage, however the way they are hierarchie'd causes issues in my opinion. Fedora is getting there and I'm excited to try bazzite once the holidays are over.

I can't wait for virtualization to be fully adapted for hardware. Directly reserving the hardware to certain uses would reduce the need for 4 PC's in my use case.
