    I find myself actually considering paying 30$ a year for prolonged windows 10 support because I find the switch to linux really overwhelming. Like being sent grocery shopping, but all lables are in traditional chinese. Some things you can figure out very easily, but troubleshooting anything takes me days.

      I personally won’t pay for the extra security updates, and will switch to Linux, but like you said, it’ll be very overwhelming at first. I’ve used kubuntu on my laptop for a while now, but it’s hard to rewrite my own software for Linux because it uses native system APIs.

      You could try OpenSUSE, it has Yast2 GTK GUI control panel for everything, no command line needed. Assuming CLI is what you find troublesome.

      And GUI package manager
