Besides size and looks, nowadays is there any significant differences between distros that might make one “better” than the other?

    It just depends on what you want out of your system and whether the distro can fulfill your needs.

    If you’re still wanting everything you run on Windows, to run on a Linux distro like as if it was out of the box and no need of another program, you’re going to end up having to stick to Windows because that kind of perfection doesn’t exist.

      It’s not really a matter of perfection, more the fact that Linux isn’t windows. It can be made to more or less look like windows, through the years, windows has borrowed lots of things from the Unix world, so windows users might think it’s kind of familiar, but it’s not.

      Linux is its own thing. It’s absolutely not a drop in replacement for windows. It can do a lot of the same things, but it won’t do them the same way. And there are things windows will do that Linux won’t and that Linux will that Windows won’t.
