Please, let's stop it here.

Sure. That's fine with me.

My last experience is dated about a couple of months ago. Last Ubuntu I
tried was 15.10.

Oh, you want to continue after all? Fine. ;)

Good for you for continuing to try. Now try to reinstall Windows on that same system without the original disk image at hand.

Yep, Ubuntu is looking easier all the time... ;)

Me too, also for Windows.

Which you can then install on your friend's computer? If you are, I doubt it's legally...

I mean, it's great if you can install and run Windows off a USB drive now. Can't do it free though.

Trust me: I really know what I'm talking about. And I know that a lot of
people don't have my (and probably your) knowledge so they can't resolve
alone all the problems they step into. That's what I'm usually called for...
:)

Fine. The fact remains, we have had very different experiences. I'm sorry you're having so many problems with Ubuntu vs. Windows, but there is no reason for me to "trust" your experiences over my own (also very recent) experiences. :)

This is not an argument about me or you, though this is about whether the Inkscape project should do our part to get folks onto an OS that they might like better and does actually provide a superior experience for using programs like Inkscape.
