I bet they seen where people were switching to Linux. "Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) were supposed to end in October, but Microsoft now says the program will end on Oct. 12, 2027."

Maybe you're right. My main GUI has always been Windows and I'm used to having apps that is more mainstream.

But maybe it's not just that I'm not familiar with Fedora.

I am a developer with Linux racks at home. So I'm not unfamiliar with Linux. I'm quite familiar with CLI.

I think the main point I'm making is that my system was crashing too much due to poor HW drivers. Even tho it's really not the fault of Linux, it's just too buggy to be running in production. At least the GUI isn't ready. My Linux servers had been bulletproof.

I can assure you my UI is stable. But only because I'm familiar with how to make it that way. Sometimes I break things because I like to learn how to fix them (I did that on Windows too).

I agree with you, Linux servers are amazing. I have a NUC here running a bunch of services. I use Gentoo because it gives me a ton of flexibility to wander into unusual territories easily.

Best to you!
