I did that before Win 10 even came out.

I honestly get so sick of this cult on Lemmy. Your PC is running slow? Install Linux! Some company does something shitty? Try Linux! Sprained your ankle? Have you heard of Linux?

I have Linux installed, I still end up on Windows most of the time because I don't have the time and patience to manually set up and configure every single thing I do on my PC, also, I like to play a lot of games and use a lot of programs that all become a choir to run if they even do on Linux.

I'm with the other guy you're downvoting, I'm staying on 10.

Edit: I'm not going to respond to you all individually, a lot of really dumb shit has been said to me, but in particular I want to address the reccuring theme of my "being here" and "leaving". I'm not here, I just browse All and see a ton of these posts. I don't really subscribe to anything on Lemmy. Also, I don't even hate Linux, I just hate your cult like mentality and the way you guys shoehorn it into every discussion, as stated previously, I have Linux installed and have used several different distros over the years.

You never really jumped in both feet, if you really make the switch you only used open source software that runs native on Linux, also you start programming instead of playing games.

I use both Linux and Windows 11 for work. Dual-booting is a best-of-both-worlds scenario.

manually set up and configure every single thing I do on my PC

What distro do you run for linux?
