> Linux day 1: whole day looking up which distro is usable. > > Day 2: install Linux distro, total process is like 4 hours because at every step you double check that you won't lose your Windows data because it's your first time installing Linux. Realize that your distro doesn't support modern displays and never will. Call it a day because you're mentally exhausted.

Hmmm day 2 should be: making a backup of my windows data, that way I can do the f... I want during installation.

> Day 3: install a distro that does support modern displays.

Apart from LTS/enterprise versions, all distros are running the same kernel generations. They all have the same hardware support really.

The rest of your text soup doesn't mean anything. Like this: "random shit like Wine installation causing system update to fail.", this really sounds like hallucinations and inventions.

The part about $DEVICE and drivers is like looking at a kid trying to connect a Nintendo SNES controller to a PS5 and complaining it doesn't work to well.
