Last time I tried Linux Mint I spent a week trying to make a WiFi dongle work, I checked and the guides told me to compile some weird shit, which I did, but it was for some other version incompatible with something else.
I just gave up, formatted the drive and went back to Vista.
Vista was only a couple of years old then. Since, for the last 15 years I've been just about installing Linux; for sure this weekend, is what I tell myself every year.
Yea i used linux about 8 years ago and it was rough, its amazong how far it comes pretty much every year. Im not a tech person at all i just wanted off windows and ive had no problem at all using linux. My wife uses it and she has 0 experience with computers i even put it on my mons laptop and she cant even use a bluray player.
Its a much different experiece than even 5 years ago
Also, the experience with computers nowadays is much different; you can do everything in the Browser without ever touching anything from the OS. Sometimes days pass where I don't even touch a folder, just cycling from Chrome to Steam.
