I have made laundry lists in the past of things that either you can’t do with windows, or you need to regedit and hack around it. Literally basic as fuck things.
Hell, until a year or two ago, you couldn’t open the location of a file from a file search, and it obscured (and still does) the full path of the file in the search pane. Not to mention how bad the search is in general.
Don’t get me started on the “modern sleep” bullshit lol
Windows 10 on a shitbox!!! You and I have very different definitions of that - lol. The ‘shitboxes’ I have (two of them) find it difficult to run even Windows 7, but Linux zooms on it like a breeze.
I know the frustration though. I sometimes use cracked software - mostly for learning new stuff as a hobby (CAD programming, designing etc) and they come only on Windows, SOo…
But these days free and open source have also come up so beautifully. FreeCAD is like this whole new thing entirely, so are LibreOffice, Inkscape, GIMP, LibreCAD, Scribus, Blender (never used this one though). Using LibreOffice has made it next to impossible for me to use MSOffice. But yes I do need that one or two shitty proprietary things because, just because…

I honest to god do not think it’s any harder than Windows. You’re just used to the quirks and skills necessary to deal with Windows shit.

It becomes apparent if you stop using Windows for a few years, when you get on it again the quirks hit back with the power of a thousand suns
