Shit just works. I'm not dicking around looking for drivers and stuff. The way I use a computer I'm not really getting a benefit from linux

I'm the opposite. No drivers required in Linux for me. Printer just worked. Wacom tablet just worked. Monitor colour profile just worked. Etc etc etc. Everything has just worked. However, I don't do bleeding edge video cards, so maybe that's an issue? I have no idea. Linux though for me, has never needed a driver.

This has been me as well. I switched to daily driving Linux after a week on windows 11. It hasn't been 100% perfect but answers were so easy to find and implement. My shit works, and works well. More importantly it works exactly how I want it to.

I went with EndeavourOS
