This post is basically to encourage people to check Linux out. What is stopping you from ditching Microsoft?

Edit: I forgot to mention this but if someone is looking for a recommendation for a Linux distribution then I'd personally recommend Manjaro KDE or just any of the popular distributions with KDE Plasma as the Desktop Environment really. Edit 2: For those who might be looking for more stability and don't need to have the most up to date software I'd recommend Kubuntu.

    The fact that there's literally anything you have to use the command line for in Linux immediately makes it unusable for most people. I have a hard enough time using it and I can write C programs and know how computers work. There are a million startup scripts and folders and things you have to know about to be able to fix problems. If Linux is going to be useable to regular people you have to get rid of all the conventions like the file system and config files and virtual terminals and stuff. Basically Android or whatever.
