I love how people keep claiming this whilst in reality most of the time, most of the hardware is so supported out of the box that you literally forget that something like a driver is even needed. Linux supports a metric frack tonne of hardware right out of the box, contrary to windows.
That goes without saying that installing most distros of Linux takes a good 20 minutes where as my last windows 11 install tool 7 hours split over various days (ok the exact same computer) to figure out all the issues and get it to work properly
