    Okay I’m a big supporter of Linux but this is misinformation.

    Windows 11 LTSC install was the easiest install I’ve ever done, even easier than mint (or as easy).

    The imagine I used even asked me the username when I was creating the bootable usb so I would save some time.

    It also let me opt out of data collection and the rest of the bloatware.

    Came with office and it was pre activated.

    Now, if only that’s what Microsoft offered their mainstream consumer…

      I have no idea what you’re talking about. I mean that in the sense that whatever you’ve used to install Windows, it must not be common knowledge or the default.

      If you need special knowledge or access, I would call that “difficulty”. So even though, after you had all your special knowledge or access, it was easy, acquiring those preconditions was hard.

      I.e. it was difficult to install Windows overall.

      The last Windows I installed was Windows 10. I was trying to install onto a SATA SSD, while keeping my pre-existing Linux installation on the M.2 SSD intact. This took me an unreasonably long time and lots of failed attempts, and in the end, the only way I could find to make it work was to first physically remove the M.2, then install Windows, then add the M.2 back again. Which sucked a lot, because M.2s are really not optimized for easy or frequent installation and deinstallation.
