Windows: easy things are easy, normal things require some googling, hard things are impossible.

Linux: easy things are easy, normal things require some googling, hard things are hard.

Well, from my short experience with linux, easy things require googling on linux. I was trying to open a port to make remote desktop work. I classify that as easy.

You may be right, googling doesn't take much time though. A Linux system without internet is indeed barely usable. Thos man pages are absolutely unreadable.
