Intermediate level configuration tasks which you can do with one dialog in Windows require editing shell scripts and decoding APIs designed by mathematicians in the 70's on Linux.
Full disclosure, I've used linux since high school, to the point where I am lost as shit on windows. What I'm trying to get at is that the question I'm about to ask is not supposed to be judgemental or disbelieving or anything, I'm just genuinely curious: can you please give me an example of an intermediate config task that's significantly easier on windows than linux? I have a hard time believing such a thing exists, but that's likely because I haven't used windows since like the vista days
