    We have a phrase for a bricked windows install: it’s called the Blue Screen of Death. It’s not like Windows never gets fucked either.

    I’ve personally never had such an issue upgrading Linux.

      If you want anecdotes, I can give you mine about how the mouse simply stops working until i unload & reload the driver, or how the window manager shits the bed upon wake up.

      Mac, Windows, Linux - they’re all software, they all have bugs, someone is going to have a bad time with all of them eventually

      The BSoD isn’t always a bricked Windows machine, it’s often just an OS crash that causes you to restart the system.
