No problem
It always amuses me when people say that Windows is easier to use than Linux, which is absolutely false and only coincides with basic functions, but not if you want to make Windows do what the you want and not the other way around. Windows allows you to tame it completely, it has all the necessary settings, but naturally these are becoming less and less intuitive and more hidden.
It's easier for people who don't know what they're doing. The limitations keep those users from breaking things and provide a decent out-of-the-box experience for the user. The very same limitations feel, well, limiting to users like you.
One of us. One of us.
I mean, I'm not, but only because I am too lazy to change (so far). I've been remarkably content with the Steam Deck desktop experience, so I'm leaning more and more towards Linux.
