    What? I installed Debian last week, and I think it took something like 4 clicks, and setting my username and passwords. I installed it because I couldn’t get Ubuntu or OpenSuse to install (guessing because I have a 3090 GPU paired with an old intel 4770k/Z97 chipset).

      By quoting hardware specs like that you’re only proving my point. Ordinary people don’t talk like that. And the only way it took 4 clicks is if you already had the bootable USB. Come on, try to imagine what all this must be like to someone who doesn’t understand computers like you. They also have a right to the freedom and privacy that Debian provides.

        And how do they install Windows? I had to install it for a friend a few months ago and the way I did it was by downloading a bootable windows image and made a bootable usb with it.

          Well that’s the point, isn’t it? You had to do it for them because ordinary people don’t have to install Windows, it’s already there. That’s why it is so crucial to get the installation UX as easy as possible.
