I've actually started to find Windows to be more difficult than Linux for many things.

Simply because windows requires using config user interfaces and they keep on changing where the setting UI I need to use can be found. When I search for instructions on how to do something, many times the instructions are for a different version of windows so I have to spend a lot of time trying to find where they've moved the setting to.

Sure some bash command can seem basically like a magic incantation. But I've learned enough to understand bash well enough to know when an incantation is suspicious, the rest is just copy and pasting text into a terminal window.

And really "apt install" is what I'm doing 99% of the time. Sure it's not clicky clicky, but it's consistent.
