Again Linux users trying to convert Windows users at every OS change. It wont work well. Windows users expect Windows, not having to relearn everything from scratch
Is it just me or is the Ubuntu font really hard to read for long-form text? It doesn't help that it's larger than normal body text too. Sites like this remind me that custom fonts in CSS were a mistake. On topic… calling switching to Linux an "upgrade" is pretty presumptuous. It's not an upgrade for someone whose business relies on programs or technologies which are still only available on Windows - for many of those…
Sorry, I've already installed GNU/Linux and simply don't have time to try and get both working! https://www.getgnulinux.org/en/
Strange they recommend Fedora and not Arch for learning Linux internals
This website is terrible. Its "resources" are almost entirely just links to articles and youtube videos. The information is poorly presented and poorly written. Why is the front page entirely taken up by a picture of a penguin?
But yeah. Terrible.

According to the link I clicked on to get here, this is supposed to be "linux differences".
I daily drive linux and recommend it to people who I think would do well with it, but I would never link them this website.

Also the small issue that despite how much Windows sucks Linux continues to be worse.
As long as linux doesn't provide unique high-value software that doesn't exist on windows, why should anybody bother ?
Earlier quoted context omitted.

I find that suggestion odd as well. I can't think of a single reason why Ubuntu should be favoured over Fedora as a quote "easy way to try and step into GNU/Linux" either. All three of their distro suggestions ship GNOME by default. Fedora is such a clear choice for those who want to use GNOME without all of the non-standard crap Canonical insists on tacking onto the DE and the overall environment.
Most average users probably want to enable the rpmfusion repos to get things like media codecs, drivers, and various other nonfree stuff. It's not hard to do this, but it makes it more of a "turn key twice" solution compared to Ubuntu.
