Query: “What are the most common pain points with Linux for developers in 2025?”4/5/2026

I needed to use Amazon Workspaces, which actually has support for Linux, but it was for Ubuntu 22.04, and I was using 24.10. So I tried to make some workarounds and configure a lot of things, and ended up spending too much time configuring it, and finally I gave up and switched to Windows.
