    Why man? Just don’t use Linux then, ffs. This is like complaining why anyone would want to drive a motorbike when cars exist

    and this is ignoring the fact that even most grandma of people can use Ubuntu

      most grandma of people can use Ubuntu

      If and only if it works out of the box. My last attempt at Ubunutu (about a year ago) lasted 20 minutes because it couldn’t connect to the WiFi during setup, claiming a wrong password. Even though the password was 100% correct.

      I don’t care if it’s the hardware manufacturer’s fault or driver programmer’s fault or God’s spite. If Ubuntu cannot get these things right, and Windows (or even Linux Mint) can, then Granny won’t use it.
