For some, particularly businesses reliant on software that can’t perform on anything but Windows (and occasionally MacOS), sure. For individuals it is much easier. Installed Linux Mint a few months ago and I set up a VM for the stuff I truly needed some form of Windows for (tried dual booting for a bit but found that inconvenient). None of these are insane lengths, unless the cutoff for that is, “anything above minimal effort.”
In the past, I had dual booted windows and linux (Ubuntu, I believe), and eventually, windows managed to screw with the bootloader and brick the install. Never tried dual booting again. Windows VM on Linux is a much better solution.
Every single time I boot up my windows install it screws up the boot order and I have to go into UEFI and force it to load GRUB on startup again. Fucking malware.
and what access controls does limux provide forcamera access? because I haven’t seen any such fearure yet. I’m all for linux but it does not help with webcam issues.
to solve this issue you do need to go insane lengths. like apparmor/selinux or whatnot.

Even more importantly, software can be exploited.

There’s a reason that my windows install and my linux install are always on separate disks. Can’t fuck up my bootloader if you don’t know it exists.
