I will never install Linux because I'll never trust that it'll be easier to use than windows, and that's all I want.
I can't count the number of people that have told me I should be on Linux and that if I use Mint it'll be a piece of perfect cake, despite me also seeing comments like this on a pretty regular basis.
Why is it that so much of the community REFUSES to acknowledge any shortcomings? Almost like it's their child and you're personally attacking their parenting by suggesting its not flawlessly simple.
You know what, you're absolutely right. I'm pretty steeped into the whole linux thing, but it really isn't going to win any prizes for usability. If I need shit to work, I'll boot into my windows partition. When I'm up for some tinkering fun, my GRUB defaults to Tumbleweed. It is not for everyone, despite what some neckbeards or snobs would lead people to believe.
