Hi, I use Linux from about 1996 and Windows from the very first version 2.x Both OS have become more reliable and powerfull.
For Ubuntu the worst weaknesses are related to multimedia and conflicts between devs : Graphics cards, sound issues and many other boring things are really where Canonical and the linux community have to work a lot. In too much cases, we have to reinstall the whole system (backing up and reinstalling all our specific configurations and apps) to fix these kind of issues, to retrieve a clean Ubuntu OS. This is what I am going to do one more time now, and it is a time consuming activity, that I would appreciate not to have to do... I rarely experience this on Windows or MacOS PCs, in these OS uninstalling drivers or apps, cleaning and reinstalling fixes most often these kind of multimedia issues. On most of my PCs, I use Kubuntu 18.04 as KDE is my favourite Desktop Environment.
