I used to fairly frequently hit dead ends on Linux, e.g. regarding Wifi drivers or getting some (Linux) applications running. But the driver situation has improved greatly, and thanks to Flatpak, Distrobox & co. I’ve only ever run into one application I couldn’t install - a corporate antivirus. Whoopsie!
regarding Wifi drivers or getting some (Linux) applications running
Yeah, there is that about drivers, definitely been there and there were times “the grass was greener in Redmond” - but… as you say that has improved, to the point that I recently can’t get Windows WiFi drivers from Ezurio, but they support every flavor of Linux.
