Rarely is still too much for me.
If I do regular joe stuff, I don't want to be required to go into the terminal.

I had to often look up how to do stuff on windows because of it's trash UX so it's an absolute W for me. But I can understand that terminal may look too scary/complicated to some ppl.

Oh Windows is certainly not exempt from the issue. Not at all.

Personally I don't have any issue with the terminal but sometimes I am totally not in the mood to research yet another time why or how to run anything.
Also I prefer Word way too much over Libre/OpenOffice.
Only if they had a word-like theme and translation to achieve what I want in a word-like behaviour it could tempt me to switch the tools.

Ye, seems fair. In my case I just couldn't bear with windows anymore and switched.

Maybe maybe for me.
For now I am content with Linux debian as my NAS/server OS and Windows as the user OS.
