Linux?

I was Linuxed in 1994.

In almost all forms it beats MicroShaft as an operating system.

And today the issues of drivers, printers, and software is all but disappeared.

The issue today is ISP service and security (VPN).

And privacy will become ever more important.

1994? You are a fossil. :) I started on Slackware before Patrick made the great leap forward during the dialup days and that was around 2000.
