I’ve only had two mentionable issues with Linux so far: A GPU bug that causes a few games to reliably hang my GPU (which may have been fixed recently with newer mesa drivers; I haven’t checked), and Helvum not recognizing anything (which was probably me installing it wrong or something).

Windows however… Changing system settings with no warning, forgetting network configuration out of the blue, GPU crashes that hard rebooted windows, and driver updates that prevent booting at all. Some software gets installed without notice, others get removed without notice. The forced update debacle has lost me more than one open document. I’ve had critical audio issues on every machine I’ve used, including individual school machines that should be identical. Several of my remaining windows machines have issues with various system programs maxing out the disk write speed and locking up everything for dozens of minutes at a time.

And then more recently there’s the security violations, always online behavior, enremovedification, and removal of user choice.

This may be a tad biased as I’ve used windows for a few decades and Linux for just over a year, but going back is always a chore…
