    I can navigate Windows well enough for my job, but I’d never choose it for personal use. I’m no Linux expert, but I haven’t yet been faced with a problem I couldn’t solve.

        I’d use a mainstream distro. I came to Linux in 2017, used Ubuntu for 4 years until I got tired of them forcing snaps down my throat, and then went to Arch. I have never distro-hopped, but I also have never had any huge issues with the mainstream distros.

        The main distros really are well maintained and do tend to “just work”. Dare I say, especially Ubuntu.

      I’m the exact opposite! Use Windows for personal use, and use Linux for my VMs/Servers/Docker.

      I was taught to use Ubuntu Linux by a middle aged engineer in another field who demanded “the brown operating system” on his computer over a decade ago, so yes, I agree, day to day Linux hasn’t been hard for over a decade.
