When windows gets everything done. Has much more and easy to use softwares. Then why should one even care about Linux? Go through the process of learning it and all?

I get that this subreddit is about dissing Linux and sharing frustration with Linux, but I want to know what people recommend instead. I understand that basically means keeping whatever OS was on your computer originally, but if you are getting a new computer or have to put a new OS on a device, what do you recommend?

This happened about 15 years ago. I worked at an IT/Telecom company as a Windows systems administrator. However, much of the business' computing power was dedicated to Sun Solaris on Sun servers and Red Hat Linux on Dell servers. One morning I get into work and I hear one of Solaris admins (SA) and one of the Red Hat admins (RH) having an unnecessarily loud discussion about uptime. So I walk over and asked what was up. SA said that RH said Linux has better uptime that Solaris. RH says SA says Solaris is better. They argued a bit more. I said why dont you find the computers with the longest uptime and the one that has been up the longest wins lunch. They said that was a good idea. I asked if I could join in the bet. They both started laughing. Saying things like you have to reboot windows once a week. I said I dont mind. They said ok. So lunchtime came around and we met. RH found a server that was up for 3 years. The SA laughed and found a Sun Workstation in the data center that hasnt been logged into by anyone in 2 years, but has been online for over 5 years. RH says fine, SA wins. I said hold on. They both looked at me and actually laughed when one asked if I could beat either of them. I dragged them into my cubicle and showed them a machine I was remoted into. An old Windows NT 4 server that ran the hardware and software for the building's physical security and door access cards. It had been running for around 11 years without a reboot.

I had a really nice lunch that day.

MY SCHOOL WORK AND SOMEOF THE STUFF I HAD IS GONE ITS ALL GONE 😭

The first two hours are routine. Everything seems to be kosher, but then the FOSS-only advocates decide it's time to "steal this plane". Stealing books isn't giving them the same high it used to.
