All of my computer problems went away after switching to Linux, so I'd say it's solid advice.

Granted, I do have computer problems, they're just different ๐Ÿง

The difference is that with Linux, it's possible to become smart enough to fix all the issues. Windows is designed in such a way that there usually isn't a way to fix its problems to avoid format and reinstalls no matter how much you know.

Lol, Linux users are funny.

I've found that my problems went from "minor annoyances that occur regular with no way to fix other than waiting for it to fix itself" and "major annoyance with workaround, has been like this since Windows 7" to "this bug almost completely breaks your system but the first search result has the three steps to permanently fix it"

Granted I'm on Arch and Plasma 6 Beta so that's to be expected
