If Windows users had to deal with the dependency issues, it likely would've never taken off. That's kind of the problem I've seen around various Linux distros, though I wager it's gotten a lot better in recent years. For the record, I've been out of the Linux game for a good 6 years, and I barely ever boot up my computer much. I'm able to run my business completely off my phone (except tax season), and I haven't made the earnest effort to get back into it due to time constraints.
Have you never heard the term "DLL Hell?" It's called that because DOS and Windows specifically use
.dll
files for dependencies.No I haven't, learn something new every day
