    I deal with this issue every few years grappling with a new linux install. And then gaslighted into thinking it’s a non-issue when asking for help. “No big deal, just copy these long lines into the terminal to install this thing that would take a single click on Windows”. Like being obstinant is a virtue

      So you’re saying you don’t spend hours on a new Windows install?

      Or that things that take a moment on Linux may take half an hour on Windows, but God forbid it happens the other way around, unacceptable?

      I mean, things that take a single click on Windows are apparently not all you do to make Windows usable, otherwise installing it and setting it up would take less time, right?
