I have always found that personally as I become more capable I get stranger and more obscure problems with computers, but never less problems. The edge cases and weirdness that you can get help with in an active forum is greater for sure.

When talking about common problems, I mean truly common, the things an average high-school student runs into like joining an online classroom or editing a document (or even playing a game!). These things do fail on linux, and without being a power user that knows where to start and some keywords to search getting past square one is not so easy.
