I don't expect anyone to switch to windows, I'm just saying this myth about windows being unstable does not align with my experiences at all. I haven't even seen a blue screen since windows 7. All the weird behavior I encountered was fixed by replacing hardware, and without reinstalling windows. Sure, linux might run even longer without rebooting, but saying windows can't go past 2 days is just a gross exaggeration.
I literally turned on my work laptop yesterday and it blue screened on boot. (Win10). Didn't even get an uptime of 5 minutes. Its not a myth that windows is unstable (in comparison with Linux and macOS).
And B. Take a joke, clearly my initial post is taking the piss. Windows is less stable than Linux, simply a fact. Hence the comment so people can have a laugh.
