Thank fuck I'm in the process of moving to Linux. I loathe the Settings app. Will be sad to not be able to say I know how to properly use Windows anymore, when I used to know it like the back of my hand. Not being able to give support to friends and family will feel really weird.
I see it as being liberated. Besides, while it'll suck to be unable to fix their problems, if it gets bad enough that they consider other operating systems, you'll be right there to help them switch!
I'm in the process of getting a family member over to Linux (again. didn't work that well last time), but still, I like to help friends and family with computers when I can and I've always taken pride in being the go-to guy who know how to fix the thing. Ah well.
ROFL, you naive sweet child. Once you're a computer expert, you'll always be so. Friends/family will still harass you and think your lying if you try use an excuse.
