Yea... The biggest wtf moment was

  1. Logitech doesn't have Linux drivers.... I didn't know this before switching. It's not really Linux's fault, but users won't care. The fact that something as basic as a mouse and keyboard need tinkering sucks

  2. Nvdia drivers are wonky and buggy it took me 2h to configure my two monitor setup. Again, really not Linux's fault, but people won't care

  3. Same random bugs like suspend not working, or extern drives randomly mounting, it's little things

So yea... I like Linux way better than Windows now, but "just switch everything works" simply isn't true and we have to be honest.
