      Linux in the modern day is a much comfier experience for an uninitiated user. But the real nightmare is using Linux WITHOUT AN INTERNET CONNECTION (it STILL super sucks nowadays), which depending on how you were connecting your old machine to the internet, the only solution was “… Buy a different network card/Switch ISPs entirely”

      Linux has gotten a lot better about just. Supporting hardware in general. And once you GET a Linux distro (any) on the internet, your life gets much easier.
