P.S. alternative operating systems aren't easy. My feeling is that NetBSD and OpenBSD are roughly as easy to get into as Linux used to be 20 years ago. If your hardware is supported, you're in luck, but for computers newer than 5-7 years old, especially laptops, some crucial bits might be missing. The documentation is much better today than it was 20 years ago, though, and the range of ports and software available is pretty good, sure.

But it still is difficult to use. For me it's learning a new thing under stress while grieving about the computing future I wish I've had.
