tlirsgender:

Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal.
A laptop is a living creature. It has weight to it. A laptop breathes and produces body heat. And it wants to die badly. Mobile phones are not sentient like that & that's why they don't experience mental illness. A phone problem is like "out of storage :(" or "charging port broke". Laptops will cough weakly as they fade in and out of consciousness.
You will hold a laptop in your arms and it's like "I can't feel my legs". And you tell it girl you never had any.

Installation, settings are probably something to learn. File system layout. Small things but enough of them can create a barrier to some.
