A few years ago I installed Ubuntu on a laptop, used it a bunch of times then it got put away for a year or so. When I booted it back up it told me the OS was out of date and needed to be updated. When I tried it gave me some errors. I searched online and basically I couldn't update because it was too old. I needed to update in stages but the next release was also out of support.
I realised I don't use it enough to care. I installed windows on it.
I do use Linux at work and on things at home like routers, retro gaming, etc. They're not really comparable though.
