    I’ve thought about it and then I remember that I’m pretty dumb about stuff that doesn’t interest me much, so it would have to be a situation where someone else was like, “here’s your linux computer, I already set up all your stuff and your games all work.”

      Ah yeah I was only messing really. There is no reason for 90% of people to switch to Linux if they’re happy with Windows or MacOs and I say this as someone who’s solely been using Linux for nearly 20 years now.

      Sure, it’s a great operating system but honestly most people just don’t…give a shit.

      It’s actually super easy now. If you can install Windows, you can install Linux (distro dependent obviously). You’ll have to learn to do power user things, but that’s true for Windows as well. Any issues are just a web search away. If you have to use the terminal, you’ll be given the commands to copy-paste.

        I’ve never installed windows either. 🙂 I removedd all the parts for my current computer, but I paid a guy to do the assembly because I wasn’t confident in my ability, so he did all that. My ex husband did it on the previous build, and everything prior was a pre-built.
