    I started tinkering with Linux 9 years ago. I have compiled a driver into the kernel that caused kernel panics. But when using out of the box distros I don’t recall having a crash that needed reboot. I’ve had a couple of lockups that were solved by changing to an alternate tty login and restarting the display manager, or doing a forced logout, but not in several years at least.

    I was using Linux and Windows for work, they stopped offering the Linux application I used, so moved to Windows for work only. Its hella janky most days, I can’t believe Microsoft thinks this is a mature operating system.

      I’m not sure they think that. At least not all the engineers. Management maybe. But they do sell it as such.
