    True; we use Windows at work, and I honestly wouldn’t recommend they switch to Linux (or Macs, for that matter, though that would be entertaining). I also wouldn’t want to be IT if they do switch operating systems. I do feel that both are better, but I’ve also been using Windows since 3.1 (early 90s), Linux off and on since the late 90s, and macOS since Ventura (2020? 2021? Something like that). So I’m good with whatever. I’ve talked to people (mostly, Boomers) who tell me they’re sick of Microslop’s shit, and I’ve told them “just get a Mac,” but using a whole other computer is scary. I bring up Linux and how it being hard to use is mostly an online myth and it’ll run on their computer alongside Windows while they learn… they’re not willing to jump. Imagine if they were forced to at work. It would not be okay for weeks, if not months.
