        It’s awesome for software devs, sys admins, tinkerers. But that’s it. Most distros still have too many issues for me to recommend it to every Windows user.

          What issues? And does Linux have more issues than Windows or different ones?

          Often Windows has more issues, people have just gotten used to dealing with them.

      Okay, so go on… instead of only listing negatives, what are the alternatives to each of these that you use?

        Librewolf is already listed. There are unfortunately no good alternatives to Windows and ChatGPT or Gemini.

          If there isn’t a good replacement for windows, then we can clearly say in your opinion, there are no good operating systems.

          So why not support the concept you believe in most?

          Because right now it sounds like you’re just making excuses for Microsoft.

          Librewolf is just some customized FF variation, so it’s from USA at the core. Same as Vivaldi, of course.

          What Linux distros did you try, though? Some are explicitly less user-friendly than others. Also, how about Llama?
