sure would, but that wasn't what was articulated. When I asked for the proof, it was just the same phrase over and over and over. I'm open to the idea of using a different OS, if it can be used for what I need it to do, and if I can wrap my head around it. But I have tried other linux and linux adjacent operating systems in the past and it was torture. And ubuntu bricked a desktop PC once at my farm when I was with my family. It couldn't be used until we put windows on it because the bug was impossible for us to fix ourselves and there was no meaningful help available to have it fixed by an outsider. Debian and redhat and OG linux were also pretty useless for our needs when we ran into bugs. I'm not using this to kill time, it's for a business to try to get out of poverty. But once I start making money, I lose my safety net. So, without a saftey net, it had better work or I'm fucked.

The issues I have, and need assurances for are:
1. if a problem arises, and I can't figure it out, how will I be able to fix it without just losing all my data and reinstalling the OS?
2. how will I make software I need to run my content creation business work on a custom OS if I don't understand the programming languages and there's no tech support for it?
3. I don't actually like windows, but I feel like i have no other options because most software is made to run on it, and it only. So I would need significant assistance to make it work, and simply repeating "this is better" doesn't put money in my wallet or food on my table, it legitimately has to work consistently and reliably or I am very fucked.
