i find there are lots of things i can’t do well on windows, but it might be because my knowledge started to stagnate about 20 years ago. for instance, pathing all my executables. i know it sounds niche but hear me out: i still write shell scripts basically every day. so if i need to call, say, inkscape to convert an svg to pdf, i find it’s easier in debian, since the inkscape executable is already in my path. and i create scripts all teh time and just stock em in my path. i use windows at work, and i find the whole notion of writing shell scripts for it daunting, not least because i need to track down the exact location of each executable.
