I think they were making a jab at Apple. Not saying they can’t run Unix.

Last time I ran a Linux desktop, I had to reinstall my graphics drivers in a tty console every time I wanted to do a kernel upgrade, because the distro ones were ancient and that was the only way to get the latest from NVidia.

Personally, it always run fine at the beginning until it isnt and then you have to spend the rest of the day trying to figure out what is wrong. For desktop that is it, servers can just run 24/7 without problems (mine just run containers).

Plasma looks pretty good but is not nowhere as good as window's.

I heard that they fixed power management but haven't tried myself.

My last point is that hyper-v got soo good with GPU partitioning and can be fully managed using type-safe Powershell.
