Linux has come a long way though and it's basically turn key for some distros. Even with flatpak or system catalogs built into the gui.

    In a lot of ways it's been like this for a long time. I recall back in 2007 when Vista was breaking everything, I installed Ubuntu and was shocked that there were zero driver issues. Even the fucking printer worked. Printers never work!

    It's only gotten better since.
