What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux? (no.lastname.nz)

The best one I've ever heard is they like the Microsoft wallpapers. Yes i told them you can use them on linux too. But they argued with me that they wouldn't be compatible.

I have the same layout except an older 3090 instead of a 5090. I had compatibility issues until I switched to Bazzite. Seems Fedora based distros work better with new hardware compared to Ubuntu based ones. It's worked so well I finally straight up deleted windows entirely.

If my long-shot bid on kubuntu had failed to then bazzite was going to be my next distro.
