It really pisses me off when something doesn't work and the first thing someone says is "must be Linux". Bro, I moved away from Windows because of all the bugs there. Don't try to bullshit me into thinking you live a bugfree life.

My system is as fast as when I first got it (minus maybe the extra bloat websites have acquired due to bugger JS libraries and unnecessarily big assets). On windows reinstalling every year or every second year was normal.
