It's not about the syntax itself, it's about which syntax to use. There are different ones and remembering which one is for which language is tough.

The day Docker works on Android, I'm settled.

Nu is great. Using it since many years. Clearly superior shell. Only problem is, that it constantly faces breaking changes and you therefore need to frequently update your modules.

Windows doesn't "just work"
Using Windows since Windows XP was sired. Using Linux for longer than that, mostly Linux servers, but have tons of years of Linux Desktop experience under my belt, with probably half of all Linux distributions on DistroWatch.com.
Conclusion: Linux server rocks. Windows Desktop sux in many ways, but it just works and I personally have no issues with it. Linux Desktop is the worst hell possible. Barely ever works. It is literal hell and I hate it.
Whenever I try to get into Linux Desktop, I have to meditate and drink a de-stressing tea beforehand, or else I cannot guarantee the laptop's or PC's screen's safety, when dealing with Linux Desktop.
For anyone attempting to comment: note, that there is a huge difference between headless server Linux usage and Linux Desktop/GUI usage. I'm only talking about Linux GUI. Linux headless is fine and works great!

How to install the app on Linux.
You search for it. Highly likely it is not available or barely functional.
IF it works, it's only packaged for Ubuntu, Debian and Arch. If you use Nix or something even more niche, good luck with proprietary software or sometimes even openly available open source software.

Yesterday, I upgraded from 0.101.0 to 0.102.0 and date to-table was replaced equally (actually better) with into record, however it was not documented well in the error. Had to research for 5 to 10 minutes, which does not sound much, but if you get this like every second version, the amount of time adds up quickly.

Am in the only one who cringes at install instructions that require piping some curl output into bash?

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you have a list of Github URLs, leading to some of the most important emulators, in your view?

Literally the same story happened on Linux in the span of decades countless times. On Windows? Cannot remember this happening more than once.

My friend uses the same headset on Linux, that I use on Windows.
When he "mutes" his headset, it is not actually muted on Linux. It is not really fixable. Obviously, on Windows it just works.

Oh speaking of monitors. How many times have I tried to use more than 2 monitors on Linux... Never worked. On Windows it's a matter of plug & play and it just works. :)

Yes, I switched to an older version and there was the warning. However, there was no warning on 0.101.0 whatsoever, so upgrading just one patch version broke my master module.
Sometimes, I skip some versions, so I am certain, that I jumped from < 0.100.0 straight to 0.101.0 and here we are, without any deprecation warning.

Back then, a pain in the ass. Nowadays, I just let an AI handle that. I used this crap for years and years and still cannot remember, which symbols you need in which order. And why should I remember? I'm not the computer. The computer should know, not me.

Very true. Been programming/scripting in Bash since many many years, I could almost consider myself an "expert", however I still need to look up the same crap over and over again, since remembering weird symbol constellations is the last thing you should do, when you actually just wanna achieve a goal with the script and not learn how to summon the spirit of some C-related language creator.
