    Yea like I said it isn’t really that I think that Linux is way worse or anything, but nothing is really motivating to switch.

    I have all the applications I use figured out, some of them have no direct Linux counterpart (For one I really like the MS Office Suite and no Open Source alternative is as good in my opinion). And with WSL I have a lovely Linux terminal that I can use in Windows.

    And I have to say I have never found Windows Updates to be a problem, I shut down my PC every day, and when there is a update to install I install it. Windows never forced me to install an update while I was using my PC.

    The only thing that is really annoying me in Windows is the start menu, but using it as just a “search” to start applications and using Everything from voidtools to have all my other search needs on Windows met.

    If I would switch so Linux I for me personally don’t see any large enough benefits that convince me to invest that time, I much rather use the time to tinker with my servers that are running Linux.

    But I’m really glad Linux is an alternative that only gets better with time, so once Windows gets too annoying for people like me there is a good alternative.
