And also every piece of software you use in Linux has to have some form of backing from the community or it dies. That said there have been well supported softwares over the years that are still here with us and support everything you did with them for 20 years or longer. Sometimes you just gotta open an old file with an old version of the software so you can bring it up to date.

I’m just saying that the software is different, does different things, Acts differently and is differently supported than windows. It also does differently. As an example or recent memory…scyncthing, the crazy cool backup thing is now “dead” because nobody gave money to the developer and he got tired of putting up with Google and Android. Scyncthing-fork came from it and who knows if anyone is going to keep using that. I’m migrating to a gui-less tool called rsync. Yeah, stuff can die overnight. But it keeps running for a few years, you just gotta remember to jump ship ⚓🚢. Linux is for those who like the adventure or support the software.
