    Part of me would quite like to fuck around installing Linux and creating a home NAS.

    I used to tinker for hours on our family pc back in the 90s and 00s trying to optimise it/make it work.

    But now? The other, bigger part simply cant be arsed. Windows 11 just works. It does what I need it to do.

      The bigger Linux distros have all “just worked” for the better part of two decades

          Yes

          hardware, which gets delivered to you with all drivers preinstalled for an “out-of-the-box” Linux experience.

              Honestly it’s generally really easy to install Linux these days, first time I did it back in 2008ish when I was like 12 on a shitty win xp laptop was not too bad either tbh.

        Not for me haha.

        I’m happy on Ubuntu, but I’ve had my share of weird bugs and ux issues. And they do a pretty good job.

        If I was on Ubuntu and never configured anything or installed any software, I’d have a slightly better track record.

          Switch to an immutable distro for stability and ease of use.

          If you do more advanced stuff, Debian will also offer stability.

          Ubuntu is definitely not something I would put in the “just works” category anymore, unless it’s Server on CLI.
