I REALLY want to switch to a Linux distro on my main machine, but every time I'm about to I find some hitch. It might be solvable, but I seriously don't want to spend an hour looking up random commands I'll never use again or remember.
I try 3-5 distros every 3-4 months and always end back up on a debloated heavily modified windows.
I don't like windows, don't get me wrong. But between driver issues, app issues, some utilities I can't seem to find a replacement for, and a suboptimal shared remote access approach - I really can't make things work well enough to not degrade my day to day work productivity.
That said, I do run Linux distros for very specific things at work or my homelab just fine...I just can't seem to figure out a way to run it as my dedicated personal and/or work machine without making heavy concessions.
I set up a new laptop with win 11 recently and i had litterally all of the issues you described. If I wasn't at work I would have screamed at the laptop out of frustration ... well I did scream but I tried to keep it professional.
I had issues with a printer on Linux but aside from that, Linux has always served me better and with less issues than windows in the last 5 years.
