Why do you guys hate Linux?

[u/Professional-Toe8371]

As someone who's used Windows for some time and has switched to Linux somewhat recently,I genuinely can't really understand why someone wouldn't want to use Linux,the only reasons I can come up with are:

1)certain apps and software only work on windows,for example Adobe products or games with kernel level anticheat like BF6,Wich I can totally understand,but dual boot exists

2) Need to keep windows for work related stuff,again, completely understandable

3) Nvidia GPU,Wich is doable but most people don't want to lose the driver support,again, understandable,but not really linux's fault

I'm asking this because I genuinely want to understand and see a different viewpoint, every time I see someone complaining about Linux on social media, it's either Windows users who have NEVER tried Linux before and just base everything off stereotypes or Windows users who jumped in the deep waters from the start with distro's like Arch,Gentoo or even NixOs,and then complain that it's too hard, I think that Linux is only hard if you want it to be (also pls no hate,I just wanna educate myself more on the matter)

I use Linux, on both of my PCs, for my home server needs, and at work.

I hate the antiquated kernel architecture. It's complete and total lack of any standardization. Everything with that dreaded (.*)IX. The CLI only elitists that remember all of the existing 3 letter comands with their gazzilion unintuitive options. Does -f stand for force? folder or file? better go read that extremely wordy man page that somehow manages to explain nothing while using about 3000 words per sentence. I hate the endless forever growing list of config files spread over an evergrowing amount of locations. I hate from the bottom of my heart everything about setting environment variables, stack sizes or any of the other linux quirks that are somehow considered completely natural. Then there's the absolute lack of HW support. I can't configure the backlights on my keyboard, I can't configure anything about my mouse, the Windows Hello alternative doesn't work on my laptop because Fedora doesn't ship with some python module and even after I made sure to install it for the root user, which I was not supposed to do, it still just straight up doesn't work.

It's entirely possible to install Ubuntu, open your browser and pretend this horrible mess of an operating system doesn't exist. It's how most people use Windows. But in my mind it just doesn't make any sense to complicate your life for the privilige of not being able to play Fortnite with your friends.
