No<\/strong>, Linux is not good for most business and personal use. The three reasons why Linux is not as popular as <a href=\"https:\/\/explore.techenutia.com\/2021\/06\/25\/windows-11-officially-married-to-android\/\">Windows<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Installation and Setup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless your system is preloaded with Linux you will have to install it on your own. <strong>The installation process is not too complicated but if you are not a techie then it could be a headache<\/strong>. You are required to partition your disk, create bootable disk drives or pen drives. And then the BIOS stuff. However, we do have a complete guide to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/explore.techenutia.com\/category\/tech\/canvass\/dual-boot-series\/\">dual boot series<\/a><\/strong> for beginners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lack of Native Apps <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Linux doesn&#8217;t have many native apps or games. You can get the basics like libre office, chrome, firefox but if you like to do something fancy then <strong>most of your apps won&#8217;t be available for Linux. Very few games are officially supported in Linux<\/strong>. And all those Wine and other windows subsystem doesn&#8217;t offer good performance. So, you will end up frustrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lack of Tech Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Linux users spend most of their time on the terminal. On the terminal, they write commands to install stuff, uninstall stuff, create files, and almost everything is done via a terminal. <strong>If you run into trouble you are on your own. If you are lucky you might find a fix to your issue on google. <\/strong>But, that of course requires research on your end and adds to the headache. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Linux is widely popular among techies.
