At least the updates work. I’ve lost count of the number of times Windows update has failed. Reboot loops, half-installed updates, updates conflicting with each other, and updates that killed my internet connection. At least I haven’t had an update brick my machine. Yet.
And don’t get me started on the upgrade process. Quicker and easier to drive to the store and buy a new machine.
Ehhh, I had a whale of a time upgrading a machine (standard Core i7 desktop) from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS to 18.04. Read: I lost the entire machine and had to reinstall from scratch.
Also, Linux support for new hardware isn't amazing. So when I upgraded to a Ryzen APU, it basically wasn't possible to get Linux running on it without resorting to a beta kernel and lots of manual futzing around. WSL has been a godsend for me.
