Well that's like not eating chocolate, no one forces you to do it.. you just gotta not do it.

I've been on linux for the past however many years and I don't waste time on my setup at all. I pretty much have the same setup for the last 4-5 years. I've spent maybe 20 hours since then tweaking things / switching distros. Never had to recompile my kernel, my drivers or anything like that since I'm on a t490 thinkpad and it pretty much just works.
