I'm just tech savvy enough to know that I'm not skilled enough for Linux. But Microsoft is starting to piss me off
You are wrong. Linux got really easy. Check out linux mint. Hardest part is making the bootable USB. My elderly parents both like it. Installation is much easier than windows and online help is much more available also.
I'm FUCKING SICK of Windows bullshit, but Linux really scare me. My impression is that everything you do on Linux requires typing codes in the terminal, even the simplest tasks would require googling the right codes to type.
Not really you rarely 'have' to get into the terminal, it just get very convenient once you get comfortable with the architecture. Which is not really required either. My 75 yo mom love it, the most techiest thing she does is apply updates by entering her password. I need to help maybe 4 times a year..
