No more new features for intel macs after 5 years. They will be dropped completely from security patches in 2028.

2028 is going to be another major opportunity to convert Mac users to Linux.

I've had way more issues installing Linux than Windows (since Windows 2000 at least).

Just recently attempted to install Debian on a laptop which has had Debian installed numerous times in the past, and it simply puked.

And I've been in IT for decades. Your average user will find it more challenging.

    Debian is not the most easy to install distro even Linus Torvalds struggled with the install process at one point. You cant compare a complicated distro directly to windows as that would be cherry-picking try installing Mint instead if you want it to be as straightforward as possible.
