2015... I was there back then, and let me tell you, the distribution landscape is very different. You don't have to rely on package managers to get your apps anymore because flatpaks and appimages are ubiquitous. Games went from having maybe a 50% chance to run with opengl to 98% running with vulkan ootb. Desktop environments have improved across the board with stuff like wayland and plenty of other good shit. And finally, linux itself has gotten much better hardware support. Seriously, you're doing yourself and everyone else a disservice by using 2015 as a comparison point.
