> Contrast that to the Linux desktop where you can't turn off the "it just doesn't work"
The modern Linux desktop is pretty damn usable, especially if you go with something like PopOS. It's got to be covering 99% of non-workstation-type of use cases out of the box.
I was shocked when I was able to install Office 97 at work on a Windows 11 machine and… it “just worked”, paperclip and all the lame ways it tries to take over your desktop…
