Windows tends to suck all the time, but the vast majority of the time it only sucks a little bit, because it's Windows... It works, but it's not great

It doesn't work though, and official windows tech support is basically useless anyways.

My experience with Windows not working is looking through three sites of search results landing me on answers.microsoft.com where the expert doesnt really help so I give up.

Linux not working is being five forum cross links deep to find an issue on the gnome networkmanager gitlab, finding out the problem was already fixed but your distro hasn't bothered to release in like 3 years so you haven't gotten the fix yet, so I give up

I've used Windows 10 since it's release. I had to reset it twice because I had a virus, which very much was my misstake. Other than that it did just work fine.

I've switched to Mint 2 months ago and I am troubleshooting a lot. Most of that comes from inexpeariance, but the point still stands.

Windows is more or less stable most of the time.
