I'm thinking of moving to #ubuntu because I'm tired of Windows updates breaking basic hardware support, e.g. wifi disconnects, USB devices not working, touchpad crashing. Honest #linux users: would I have similar issues with Linux?

I'm afraid there things would be even worse because fewer people use it and it will be harder to find solutions.

Totally depends on what hardware you have and what linux distribution you choose. There's a quite big community behind ubuntu ! Depends too on what usage you want to do of your computer. I'm personnaly using a dual boot, benefiting of both OS
