I can&amp;#x27;t remember the last time I ran into problems with networking, printer setup, or really anything except suspend&amp;#x2F;hibernation, barring one astonishingly cheap ($168 at Walmart) machine that had a weird integrated Bluetooth&amp;#x2F;wireless&amp;#x2F;something else card without a free driver.&lt;p&gt;That being said, Windows 10 is great for regular-user stuff --- really great, in fact.  It&amp;#x27;s only for development that it&amp;#x27;s sometimes a little awkward, and it&amp;#x27;s really not bad.  If I were working with .NET&amp;#x2F;MSSQL&amp;#x2F;IS more, I&amp;#x27;d love it: Visual Studio is a nearly perfect IDE on a powerful machine.  Debian is still better for me, though.</text><parent_chain><item><author>KajMagnus</author><text>&amp;gt; what&amp;#x27;s missing from a modern Linux desktop&lt;p&gt;Networking, printer stuff, graphics stuff that works immediately after installation, without one having to search for various problems &amp;amp; fixes on the Internet. And that doesn&amp;#x27;t randomly break after kernel upgrades.&lt;p&gt;Because of running into networking &amp;amp; graphics driver problems every now and then (and having to revert to older kernel versions), and problems with printers &amp;amp; drivers, I feel I would never never never recommend Linux to people, unless they enjoy troubleshooting things and learning new stuff.</text></item><item><author>davidy123</author><text>You can&amp;#x27;t easily share media between the Apple ecosystem and others.
