I call bullshit. It only took me 3 hours to compile and install gentoo on my latest build and get proper desktop environment working. Granted I'm still tweaking the config files 4 years later, but it's perfect!

With archinstall script you can install Arch in less than 1 minutes (not counting copying system files)

Why do all my homies use Linux Mint while I use Ubuntu?
Because you're wrong?
Personally I don't like snaps, is the main thing.
I don't like Snaps either, but it isn't a that big of a deal. Ubuntu is still vastly more private than Windows. I do prefer Fedora much more because it actually sandboxes system services with SELinux polices. Snap creates a better sandbox for applications than Flatpak, but it is slower to launch applications, depends on AppArmor (which is less secure than SELinux), and uses hard coded package repo (centralized design).

This is true, but the people who think of Windows as easier to use are not people who install operating systems themselves.

You can install the enterprise iot version or running chris titus's debloat script. But if you do this, you're technically savvy enough to use Linux and really want to/have to stay on Windows.
