It used to be a real pain to install Linux. My first Linux distro was Slackware on a v0.99 kernel that came on 35 floppy disks (ask your parents, kids) way back in the early 1990s. Things have come a long, long way since that. You don't even need to muck around with dd and create a boot USB anymore. Super easy.
I've been running Linux since 1996. It's definitely much easier. I remember it took me almost a week to get my modem operating so I could download Netscape, and get on the Internet.
