Yes. Linux is dirt simple. Which is why 2025 is the Year of the Linux Desktop. For about the 30th year running.

Linux "just works" if you view the computer before you as a toy or a game or an end unto itself. If you view it as a tool that is supposed to let you do your real work while staying out of the way, it falls down flat on its face.

For example, I have a nice Bluetooth speaker that worked flawlessly under Windows. Still works flawlessly with my phone. My SO, despite hours of reading things and trying things out while, toward the end letting out a never-ending stream of quiet profanity, could not get it to work reliably. He can get it working. And then it will just randomly cut out and he has to do it all over again (albeit not for hours anymore).

This is not the only such problem. We can't get it to hibernate either. I have to leave my computer running all the time so I don't lose my place with my work. When I was running Windows it was "press the power button and walk away" after about three minutes of changing some settings when I first got it.

This is a never-ending stream that a techno-nerd would probably have no problems dealing with on a daily basis, but I'm not that, and I don't want to be. (My SO is, but he has his own work; I don't want to treat him like my personal IT department. I'd rather just have my computer work without these little, never-ending irritations.)

But … it's still better than Windows 11. It will be what I use until the HarmonyOS PCs stabilize and breaks free into the wider ecosystem, after which my next phone and computer both will be using HarmonyOS.
