Thank you!! When I first set up Linux as my daily driver I questioned if perhaps I just chose a bad distro or got unlucky in my setup. After trying 2-3 distros I saw that even as a fledgling software engineer at the time I lacked the ability to set up Linux in accordance with my desires without hours of googling and frustration.
Considering some of the issues I help my friends and family with on their personal computers, I couldn't imagine any of them installing and configuring Linux on their own.
It frankly does more harm than good when people try to perpetuate the myth that a Linux installation is just as trivial as a modern Mac or Windows install as it causes people to approach Linux with unrealistic expectations.
