    To be fair, it’s just because windows is the most used and common desktop operating system and the two OSs are different. People would be confused about windows too if the tables were turned.

        This is true to a large extent. No one goes out of their way to make Linux easy.

        Don’t get me started on GitHub.

          I see you’re getting down voted and I feel for you. Linux is a breeze if you know what you’re doing and git if the dev knows what they’re doing. But if you’re not an it wizard or very much an enthusiast, Linux just is more complex.

          So this is nothing for you, but more to the gatekeepers downvoting you

            What really pissed me off when I switched to Linux was I suddenly went from OS wars to sub-OS wars.

            What? I’m an idiot for not switching to Linux? Ok, I’ve switched to Linux.

            What? I’m an idiot for not using Arch? Motherfucker, all you told me was to switch to Linux and I’m already having trouble figuring it out.

              I totally feel this. I came first to Ubuntu and people immediately went, why no debian/mint/arch. Now I’m on popos and happy and still some would say you doophus
