    The process to install Ubuntu vs Windows is pretty much the same.

    Create a user, choose a timezone, connect to Wi-Fi or LAN and wait for setup to finish. It is not complicated by any mean.

    As I mentioned, most people never install an OS in their life, so they don’t know how to create a boot drive and install an OS.

    So the issue isn’t that installing Linux is complicated, it’s that installing an OS on an empty drive is not a thing that the vast majority of pc users has done or will ever do.

        Have you tried to install Ubuntu recently? It is as straight forward as it is.

        It is not a complicated process no matter how you look at it.

          I’ve installed a dozen distros. I’ve also tried to assist others in installing them. It doesn’t go well.

          Installation is only the beginning of the problems though.
