This is a summary from @Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world:
TL;DW:
This is a simplified version of simplified version.
Not everyone has the ability or spare time to become skilled in every field. Calling them lazy and illiterate for not learning a complicated thing (when they may already be learning some other complex subject) is kinda the definition of elitism.

I’d recommend asking around lemmy.dbzer0.com, in the sailing community.
But it’d be easier to switch to Linux Mint, if you don’t have a critical windows app that doesn’t work in wine.
For anyone else reading this and thinking about trying linux for the first time, be sure to use Linux Mint. It will give you the smoothest and easiest experience, and you pretty much never need the terminal. It even comes with a really nice software store (but everything is free).
What is holding lemmy back? I use it almost exclusively for months and find it to be a great replacement.
They used c++ initially since it was spawned from SerenityOS, which was designed to be a mashup of win2000 and unix.
