If you are just an ordinary user, there is no need to master Linux like a professional.
Many people use Windows without being experts; most Windows users do not understand how Windows operates!
When Windows has issues, they still can’t solve them; if the system crashes, just restart it, and if software hangs, just reopen it. If the computer breaks, you have to find someone to fix it!
As an ordinary user, you don’t need to understand how the Linux system operates at the beginning; you can just use it without delving into advanced features or system management.
We are all ordinary users; you don’t need to be an expert in Linux. You are not aiming to become a Linux professional; just using it is sufficient.
You might think that Linux is open-source and free, with many desktop environments available, each with its own unique features.
This can also be a reason for you to use Linux: curiosity and novelty without spending money, which is perfectly reasonable.
In terms of being open-source and free, Windows and MacOS cannot compare to Linux; they have to take a back seat.
Regarding the stability and high performance of the system core, Linux is also quite impressive, and Windows cannot compete with Linux.
Windows is strong only in the personal desktop application field; it is not that the system itself is strong, but mainly because it is a commercial system, and many desktop software applications prioritize compatibility with it.
If Linux had poor stability, there wouldn’t be so many servers choosing Linux; it’s just that there are too many Linux distributions, and each personal desktop version has its strengths.
Linux is actually a highly adaptable system, and its industry applications are unmatched by Windows and MacOS.
However, Linux distributions also have drawbacks; there are too many of them, and anyone can create their own distribution.
The abundance of Linux distributions often leads to significant issues with software compatibility.
For application developers, whether individuals or companies, who would want to develop an application that needs to be compatible with various Linux distributions?
This results in many excellent applications available on Windows or MacOS not providing support for Linux.
As a result, many ordinary users find that they cannot find the applications they used on Windows or MacOS while using Linux, and naturally feel that Linux is lacking.
Some might say there are alternative applications available.
However, you should know that even if you find similar alternative applications, there is still a learning curve and a need to change user habits, which does not lead to a good experience.
Setting aside those applications that do not support Linux, the software ecosystem on Linux is actually very rich, mainly relying on its open-source software ecosystem.
Windows and MacOS do not have the open-source ecosystem that Linux has.
Using Linux is just like using Windows and MacOS; it is a system, a more advanced tool, but Linux offers greater customization.
You can treat Linux as a big toy; don’t think about mastering it. Just use it, and as you use it, you will understand more and know whether it suits you.
No one starts as an expert; I was also a beginner. You use it, and if you find it suitable for yourself, you continue using it. Over time, you will naturally understand more.
When using Linux, who doesn’t start as a beginner? There is no need to be an expert; just being able to use it is enough. What others say is irrelevant!
If you have anything to share about using Linux, feel free to share your thoughts!
