I could also call it the "Linux struggle"
"Windows and Microsoft spy on you, it breaks, it's heavy, its hardware requirements are too hard, windows updates...
you could try Linux, you can even game on it nowadays.
naaah it's too complicated. Anyway, gotta edit the registry to disable a feature"
:(
I've got a dual boot currently, with windows exclusively for gaming and ubuntu for everything else. Would love to fully switch to linux, but some games still don't work on it, and then there's gamepass of course, which likely never will.
It IS too complicated tho. I consider myself pretty techy, but my Linux experience, just trying to do basic things like downloading a program, became a long chain of troubleshooting and installations of dependecies and searching online for answers.
Sadly, it got me REAL turned off Linux. I love the concept of it, but at the end of the day, I just want something that works.
Sounds like you really don't want to learn smth new and you don't want people to think you are lazy.
