I can't afford a broken system anytime and that's why i can't use linux. It breaks when you least expect.
Funnily enough I could say the same about Windows
That thing has broken itself more times than I can count but my 2 linux machines (I still have 1 Windows machine) have been rock solid for 2 years now
The most only reason I have the last Windows machine is because I've been lazy about switching it lol
I I believe Linux appeals to a specific group of users. Personally, I rely heavily on Microsoft Office. Unfortunately, LibreOffice and OpenOffice don't meet my needs because they often alter document formats when I share files across different platforms.
Yeah my Windows system has my Lightroom install and my Fusion 360 install, part of my laziness is that I hear that you can get both to work but I haven't bothered to shift over and make the attempt at getting them to work.
The open source alternatives for those 2 just aren't there for me.
