I recently jumped on pure Mint after buying a new desktop PC with no OS pre-installed. Within a week I was dual booting it on my laptop too. It's so much faster and efficient. Battery feels like it lasts 50% longer.

And the control is amazing.

I was very skeptical of Linux, as I had a shitty experience previously with OpenSUSE where nothing worked. Mint is the way to go tho, been so smooth.

I'm not a Linux hater (believe it or not), but I'm definitely not an evangelist either, and I think this eternal praise for Linux is just not warranted.

If you want things to "just work" in any capacity, then you're in for a bad time.

Personally, I don't want Windows 11 on my next PC, but I don't have the time or the desire to get into the troubleshooting hell that unfortunately is Linux either.

People say that anything is possible on Linux, but at the same time roast you for even thinking that it's not gonna take enormous amounts of un-learning and self education when coming from Windows.

Linux fanboys who don't see it's faults can be sort of toxic.

I don't doubt that I'll get downvoted for this, but I think there need so be more differing opinions on Linux on here.

Based on my own experience and critisism I've read of Linux(which is rare on here): Nothing is plug and play. You will have to troubleshoot the simplest things. You will have to like it.
