i do wish linux was as usable as windows. even when windows is backsliding, choosing linux feels more like a political choice than a practical one.

ever since i've shifted to NixOS my plex server's connectivity has become unusable, and now all bluetooth connections are unstable. I can't even connect a speaker without it blanking out every 2 seconds, and i can't stream on my TV via plex without the connection crashing in 30 seconds. None of this happened with Windows.

and i'm good at tech and troubleshooting! i'm a literal professional! how do we expect laypeople to abandon big tech with all this?
