2. Ah, I did set it up (and it had to do it by hand to dual boot). It's just all these things added up--they're table stakes for an OS.


As a pro, at least, dual booting with Linux is still straighforward. I guess other OSes can't compete there.

I have to admit that otherwise its not all roses in Linuxland. Fedora for example, a couple of versions ago switched their upgrade peocedure to the awful download now, reboot system and wait for updates to complete. Basically upgrades feel like Window upgrades now. Maybe that's the way they want to "force" users to swith to Fedora Silverblue :)
