3 years ago I switched to Ubuntu for a week, couldn't handle it and went back to Windows.
Then I checked out Void Linux and dumped Windows for good, has been a breeze since (except for Nvidia). Rocking bcachefs as we speak.

Which distro do you use?
What Windows features do you miss?

I've been using Linux as a daily driver since 5 years.

Have used almost all distros under the suoint but I currently use Pop OS on my laptop mostly because it has most stuff working out of the box.

I've been using Linux for so long that I don't remember what windows features I miss. Apart from the fact that I can't natively run exe files ig
 
Windows fan guys gonna hate on you for this :D

Ubuntu, if I am using a linux. The next best thing for me is mac. Mac is linux without the headache for me.

Windows.. probably for gaming but I have more serious things to do normally lol. I have used it extensively for years before. I am not a hater but I don’t like it.
 
I switched to Linux 4 years ago and since then I have tried many flavors of Linux. Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, MX Linux, Kali Linux and Parrot OS are the ones I can remember right now.
But my current setup looks like this.

I'm using Ubuntu (Just for better hardware support, Nvidia drivers etc) with i3 windows manager.
I'm a keyboard lover guy so I love to do everything with keyboard.
In the browser I use vimium to control almost everything using the keyboard.
In the vs code I use the vim extension.

I honestly miss nothing about the bloated cheap windows and hope never will.
 
Not a full-time Linux guy but use Ubuntu as my favorite distro
 
I use linux as my daily driver for almost 10 years now. I always have a Windows 10 VM to test stuff on though.

I tried a bunch of different distros but the one that i always find myself coming back to (and it is my current one) is Fedora with XFCE.
 
I gave up Windows in favour of Ubuntu and my pc is much more productive and I can write my own ngeo programs, customise as I like. Very high quality system. I'm a Linux fan now

Yes, for almost 20 years, and it's a terrible idea. This popped up on my YouTube recommendations today. Linus Torvalds, creator of the Linux kernel, sums up why Linux on desktop sucks, and I totally agree:

 
in Windows we can play LOL and toxic in this =)))
 
I don't use a specific distro, but I can help with many Linux distributions like Ubuntu, Arch, and Fedora. As for Windows features, many miss its compatibility with a wide range of software, gaming performance, and ease of use for beginners.
 
The performance improvements and flexibility of bcachefs are very good, especially in terms of large data throughput and system responsiveness.

Moving to Void after you couldn't handle Ubuntu is quite some move. After some hopping I found peace with OpenSuse Tumbleweed still some issue with Nvidia/Wayland/Gnome, but now it's extremely good compared to what is used to be just couple years back. I have high hopes for Cosmic DE it might solve some of the issues I currently have, also some proper image editor would be nice.
