I've had multiple of my normie friends ask me about linux in the last few months and I even got 2 to switch over. Which blew my mind I got them to.

I think my favorite comment I've heard from them since switching is how much it just gets out of their way. It's there and does the thing and is only there as much as it needs to be.

    Before doing the switch, part of my mind thought that it was accepting a new pain that might equal or exceed the familiar pain in the short run but would be worth it in the long run to get away from the frustration of windows.

    The reality that I experienced is that it was less painful than wrangling windows to behave more like how I want it to.
