I find it funny when people say things like “it’s hard to update things on Linux”.

How is typing ‘sudo pacman -Syu’ (or whatever your distro uses) harder than the complete mess that is updating Windows apps? And if the command line interface scares you, you can install a package manager with a GUI. In fact, most beginner-friendly distros come with a package manager pre-installed.

I think it’s more lack of familiarity than being difficult to use, especially with distros like Ubuntu and Linux Mint.
