  • Because Linux doesn’t just work out of the box.

    Somehow the Linux evangelists never understand that point.

    All your peripherals, no matter how old, and all your (legacy) software just works on windows. Maybe the OS isn’t blazing fast and there is more and more so called bloatware (at least according to FOSS people), but if I plug in my 10y old Logitech wireless mouse, it works in 10 sec. In Linux I’d have to start searching for a solution, a driver, a little hack, a script, a controller repository, etc… It will work eventually, but it’s not intuitive. Doubly so for people that were raised on windows.

    Linux is absolutely not user friendly for non techies that have 20y of windows habits in them.
