Again, doesn't matter if others have had the problem, because there is a way to fix it and plenty of distros ship with it fixed out of the box. Just because you picked a distro that has the problem, and you are too dumb to fix it doesn't mean linux is broken. Having a choice in distros and packages is a fundamental principle of linux and that sets it apart from Windows where users have no choices.
How about in Windows when I plug my gopro into it and double click on a video file that it takes 10 seconds before it will start playing? In linux it starts playing instantly. Have you ever tried to run docker services in Windows? It's an absolute shitshow, but in linux it works flawlessly. See? I can give plenty examples of things working like shit in Windows that work perfectly in Linux. You actually are just an idiot, with no experience, and no idea how computer systems work.
What about setting custom keyboard shortcuts? Can't do it in Windows to the extent of Linux. What about fully customizing your desktop environment? Can't do it in Windows. But you think Windows just works? Nah bro, Windows doesn't work at all in my opinion when you can't do basic things like control and customize it. You have different priorities, you think "just working" means your shitty ass games run. I think just working means I have full control and customization and ownership over my box so I don't have to put up with ass desktop environment and ads and telemetry data.
So just keep trying to cope with the fact that you're an idiot and you need to used a dumbed down OS that sends off telemetry data and forces ads on you. It's okay. You're a dumb dumb and are willing to put up with the shitshow of Windows. It's okay if you cope by shitting on the superior OS, but it just makes you look like an idiot at the end of the day.
Ubuntu, Fedora, and Manjaro have it broken out of the box. Please, tell me which Distro has it fixed out of the box? I would love to try and prove you wrong.
Also you're literally proving my point. Linux doesn't "just work" when you need to figure out how to fix it.
GoPro files run instantly on my PC. Try not having such a potato PC? Not to mention it sounds like in both situations Windows DOES work, in my example, Steam does NOT reach full speed.
Sounds like you need to learn what words mean. Keyboard shortcuts aren't preventing Windows from working. Customization isn't the same as "just working". Windows does just work. I am not arguing with some asshole on Lemmy about Steam speeds on Windows. It just works.
I would use Linux, but it doesn't work, and the 'easy fix' doesn't exist. Linux is the shit show. Has toxic people like you crying and coping and defending it. Sorry it sucks so bad it doesn't even get networking, the most basic functionality in 2023, right.
