    Well, that’s your opinion. For others it works fine. I’ve been using Linux since 1995 and exclusively for both home and work for well over a decade now. And there are rarely issues these days. Teams is a piece of shit, but my coworkers on Windows agree on that. Apart from that everything works for me.

      Well, yeah, I think “Teams is a piece of shit” is a very uncontroversial statement.

      I think “there are rarely issues” is demonstrably wrong, though. At least if we agree on the definition of “issues”. Every Linux support forum I’ve visited looking to fix my HDR monitor support seems to agree that HDR support in Linux is tentative at best, which I’d call an “issue”, or that setting up a Nvidia card in distros that don’t come preinstalled with the proprietary drivers can be a mess, which I’d call an “issue”.

      Linux desktop is certainly functional, but having learned to work around the limitations, to live without certain features or to purchase the better supported hardware alternative is different to there being no issues for a user migrating whatever PC they have over and expecting everything to work first time.
