Yeah I do agree modern Linux is easier to use at least for basic task, but once something break or you need to install a software that requires a lot of dependencies or configurations that's another story, I'm still new to Linux and I can't remember how many times I accidentally break the entire OS and needed to reinstall again

Yeah I get it. It always sucks to have the OS break to a point of having to reinstall it. I've actually got a history years ago of breaking my DOS/Windows installs, though that is usually me screwing around with shit I don't understand and don't know how to repair the damage.

But that is all part of the learning experience I guess.
