    They already made it simple, are you kidding me? You are running a different OS inside an entrirely fictitious computer that doesn’t exist, and it takes a few clicks to set up on stock software that comes with your OS or is freely downloadable online. The whole thing is magic.

    Magic that is still way below the awareness of common users. I’m not acting like “no one” wants to use VMs, I’m telling you that, at scale, this is not key functionality for the vast majority of the userbase. Which is entirely accurate.

    And because the vast majority of the userbase is on Windows and doesn’t even know this would be a problem, that’s not WHY they’re on Windows or not on Linux. It’s not even a “tiny brain” thing, it’s just what people use (and don’t use) computers for.
