    So Mac?

    Because that definitely isn’t Linux. Where you got to dive into documentation in order to install the correct repositories just to make your audio work. (And if it isn’t that, then it is some other bullshit)

    Actually, I wouldn’t put Mac in there as well, where Apple can just decide you aren’t allowed to do something.

    Can’t think of a single OS that does exactly what you want without much hassle.

      First, needing to set things up does not mean the OS is actively fighting you. If you need to install something for your hardware to work Linux actively wants to aid you, where as Microsoft is actively fighting against you keeping your files and accounts local.

      Second, I tried Linux last week and had minimal issues getting my hardware to work. The biggest problems I had were a result of me over-complicating things because I assumed it would be harder and assumed Linux was at fault. Turns out the specific software I was using was the problem and the fix was easy.
