Ah yes notoriously flakey hardware support. Like Microsoft doesn't used it to power their entire cloud platform. The hardware support argument is dying tbh used to be true about 20 years ago

It's pretty archeic with it's syntax. A lot of its features have come about through feature creep. I mean it does a good job but it's just hard to work with and pretty cobbled together. It's showing it's age. If you've worked with any large bash scripts you'd understand how much of a pain it can be

I agree with everything but bash. Bash sucks I'm not going to lie, nearly anything else is better than bash

It's honestly not unrealistic though, I've used Linux for over 3 years as a daily driver for IT, software dev, and gaming. Only thing it struggled with with was gaming. I'm really not sure how you had so much trouble getting RDP to work, it was never that tiresome when I set it up. Linux does work out of the box on a wide variety of machines and it is gaining in popularity and ease of use. It does have limitations but they are quickly fading. Even then, from my experiences windows has more limitations. Windows can't even use any file systems other than NTFS without WSL besides the most basic like FAT. It costs money to use and has meager customization at best. It's bloated and barley runs on anything short for 8 GB of ram these days. It refuses to allow you to even have the slightest bit of privacy. That's probably the biggest reason to switch. RDP does work great on windows. It's their proprietary protocol. What else would you expect. Windows may be more "plug n play" but Linux just has more options for alot of thing and has more flexibility. It's way more versatile as an os. If your looking for something plug n play just stick with Ubuntu

Obligatory, use Linux. With companies you vote with you money. The more you use it the worse it will get. They believe they have a stronghold on the market

Why? That doesnt make any sense. As soon as you post or DM anyone that is out in the world. If you cannot trust a party to not share your messages if you dont want them shared then dont send them. But it is the freedom of the individual to share what has been said to them. Summarizing muddies the water. Asking for this is grotesque.
