    On windows that stuff just works.

    Not really, it “just works” after you install some sort of proprietary crap software that is a couple of hundred MB from the hardware vendor, that opens up a few security holes and is never patched and is constantly in your system tray.

      I would phrase it as “this vendor refuses you support me as a customer”. It’s not Linux that doesn’t play well with X device, is X device manufacturer making the conscious decision of not caring.

      Similarly to how Apple watch doesn’t work with Android phones.
