      Don’t know if this is a useful perspective, I switched to Linux about 2 weeks ago, coming from windows all my life, and most recently win10. It’s been tough, it seems like you can do anything you want, but you’re gonna spend many an hour troubleshooting early on for sure, and if you don’t have some amount of command line experience that’s gonna suck

        What have you run into that sticks out to you?

        I’m curious because I’ve been on Linux full-time for 2 years now and an avid user for years before, but my friend is thinking of switching and I want to know what he might need help with.

        You’ve been using Windows all your life. It will take time to be comfortable with Linux since it’s a different workflow, that’s normal.
