I was reminded how easy Arch is in comparision to Windows when I had to do 2 installs of Windows 11 for a client just to get a stupid local admin account. (He logged in using a M365 account which tainted the entire install and made a local admin account impossible.)

First time I ever installed Linux was in 2000, Fedora and redhat, so painful. Have had a back and forth distro hopping experience with dual boot over the years since. Zorin was the first time I could just drive it and it finally got me 100%, plus I liked the UI polish. But this looks damn good and web apps are prevalent enough now to make me want to try a tiling manager finally as well. The exploring never stops.
