Glad I uninstalled Windows and use Ubuntu on all my computers

I did this many years ago, ran into a bunch of issues and switched back.

Tried again maybe 4 (?) years ago and have stuck with it - everything is pretty smooth for my purposes now. I do run into some random issues sometimes - like display drivers randomly resetting. That seems to be the biggest one.

Windows has random issues, too. Everything has random issues. When it happens on Windows, people think it's Just The Way Computers Are, but when it happens on anything but Windows, it's Not Ready For Prime Time.

You're absolutely correct on your assessment and it makes them sound absolutely ridiculous when you are on the other side of the fence. I have used Linux for decades and barely notice its issues. Every time I use Windows, all I notice are the issues. It has nothing to do with being biased towards one operating system or another. Rather, it is the outcome of being accustomed to something and unfamiliar with the other.

People should really try putting themselves into the place of those they are speaking to before making broad statements, and temper those statements with the realization that different people have different experiences and expectations.
