It's so funny watching people have this problem for a literal decade, and they're still complaining instead of using FOSS.
This. Straight up this. Just fucking use Linux, it's ready for casual everyday use.
LOL it absolutely is not. Not even close.
In what way is it not? It has a desktop, a browser, free app for a word processor. For the CASUAL user it's fine. Just don't go into the terminal, like you wouldn't for the command prompt.
Hardware compatibility. I have one machine that won't boot any Linux installer at all. Another with constant gpu driver problems. Another where Bluetooth doesn't work at all. Another where wifi firmware crashes all the time. It never ends.
Hell, even if you do go into the command prompt it's pretty easy if you're on something Debian based, apt is really easy to get a hang of.
"Why does my .docx document look all mess up on my computer?"
I can open .docx just fine with LibreOffice.
