    The best thing about Linux is that if your distro starts fucking around it's super easy to jump ship.

      Ok please elaborate on what "super easy" means. Because in my -very limited- experience with Linux is that changing distros is essentially reinstalling your OS, and having to do a lot of early setup all over again.

        "Super easy" in this case means that it's free and that the file structures are shared so a lot of things transfer without a fuss even if the settings don't - but the alternative of course is using Windows or Mac in which case you can't jump ship if you don't like what Microsoft or Apple are doing to their OS.
