It's not that Windows is easier. It's that you're more familiar with Windows.

I've used Linux and Windows about equally. Windows is way less of a hassle. Unless you need a super specialized environment or are running a server, the hoops you need to go through on Linux to do a lot of otherwise simple things aren't worth it.

What kind of hoops? Good luck finding a solution on windows if it automatically doesn't fix it.

Then you can just change something in the registry, which also has a GUI btw.

You have absolutely no clue do you

Your experience here is what I mean. You have used Windows a lot, so you understand how it all works. I don't.

I struggled to find drivers for obscure hardware under Windows. If there are no modules, no git repo, it can be confusing where to get them. I found a bunch of sketchy looking websites that claimed they had the drivers, but no obvious way to safely install them. I still don't know the proper way to do it.

I am familiar with Linux, so I know I need to find modules that I can compile against my kernel. 9 times out of 10 it's effortless for me.
