AFAIK every Linux distribution has a section on the website about recommended hardware, don't they? Yes, Linux is better than Windows in many ways, and many people have a good reason to say that. Maybe they should always add that you should choose your hardware carefully, which I did above.
> no victim blaming
The victims in this case are Linux developers and the whole Linux community, which is harmed by unsubstantiated claims that Linux doesn't work reliably. Nobody guaranteed ever that any OS would work on all hardware in the world. I'm tired of this myth.
> Does it really matter that much which exact issues, on an opinion piece?
What if I write an opinion piece that Windows is extremely buggy and slow on my unspecified hardware (which happens to be, e.g., a MacBook or oldest Raspberry Pi)? Does such "opinion piece" bring anything useful to the audience?
