I've had both a Turbo trainer back in the day and recently sold my Krietler rollers. Rollers were by far my preference. Easy to ride, including pedaling smooth and riding straight. When you go out on the road you "remember" how easy it is to ride straight and smooth. Enjoyable ? Yes, no, maybe .. hah .... compared to what ? I sold the rollers as I prefer walking my local hills in winter, trouncing through snow, the woods and fresh air and natural light. In winter I don't even think about bicycles. When spring comes then I eventually start riding again when it's well warm enough.
If you do ride inside, wear a towel around your neck inside if you like, wipe your face . Blast a high speed fan in front of you if you like. You don't have to sweat on the bike or on the ground, no one if forcing you, you're not missing anything and you're not adding anything, the world won't stop rotating and it won't go any faster. Sheesh .. just ride, or not, however you want, slow or fast. Enjoy life in every way no matter what.
