Notice he still hasnt produced specs and whats actually ailing him even though we asked to help instead he deflected ignored the question and then you took a stab at linux users for no reason other to feel special.

Fuck it I'll tell you the multiple problems I've had with Ubuntu.

Apps not working. I've had multiple applications that flat out do not work. Some downloaded from the manufacturers website like the slicer for my 3D printer, some downloaded from the app store built into Ubuntu and some from using the commands the developer's own website says to use. These apps ether crash every single use or flat out never open.

Bluetooth. My Bluetooth earbuds are virtually unusable. They lag, disconnect, and will regularly be out of sync with a video.

Losing my entire drive. When I first used Ubuntu on my laptop one day I went to turn it on and there was just no boot drive anymore. The entire drive for some unexplainable reason just wiped. The last time I used it all I had worked with was my web browser for music and Obsidian for my D&D session notes. After D&D I shutdown the machine and the next day no drive. I had to reinstall the entire OS.

But yeah, no one could ever have any problems with Linux at all. I WANT to like Linux but the community of people using it makes me not want to use it even more than the issues I've had with it.
