Lol, sheeeh, the ratio!! I’m a (sadly) Windows-focused sysadmin in higher education and I agree with this, Linux is amazing for servers but normal business users can’t do shit with it : (
This was definitely true ten years ago! I'm sure you'll catch up to the modern linux experience soon though.
2025 will definitely be the year of the Linux desktop :)
The year of the linux desktop was when AMD open sourced their drivers around 5 years ago and Valve partnered with codeweavers to drop Proton. Its only been uphill from there.
