    This is true, but the people who think of Windows as easier to use are not people who install operating systems themselves.

        Windows 11 takes foreeeeeever to install on cutting edge hardware. Arch OTA is literally 4 clicks and fast as fuck.

            Oh no no, it takes forever because it’s cumbersome, not only because it’s slow (which it also is). Having to opt out of 420 different options for telemetry is crazy.

              I followed a guide to remove all that shit from the installer and still had to say no to most of it, and it showed up anyway.

          Build your installer with Rufus and bypass most of the Oobe. Then it’s literally a few clicks. You can be at the windows 11 desktop in 10 minutes from USB boot if you know what you’re doing. And if you argue that having to know what you’re doing makes it harder… Linux…

      I’ve installed over +400 Window machines.

      Windows is definitely easier to use in my opinion. Without having to buy the correct hardware, fiddle with the drivers, find the correct updates, run things through command because there is no UI, and deal with a toxic community.

      So your statement is factually incorrect.
