Honestly, I agree with @StillNoLeftLeft@hexbear.net

Ok fair enough, but I wouldn't have installed Linux if I had not seen it recommended.

I'm not a computer toucher, but I can follow written advice.

These sorts of posts always scold anyone giving out actual solutions just so being miserable can continue. This cultural thing almost has an end of history type vibe to it. It's also pretty hostile to divergent and often solution focused neurotypes.

Linux evangelism kinda makes sense, no one is spending billions on marketing and ads for it. I think Linux evangelists should ask about use cases first, instead of just posting a generic "use Linux".

Don't forget the other camp who just HAVE to play their video game slop. The linux distro must be capable of running 100% of their video games, every single one of them, or they turn into a crybaby puddle and give up. God forbid they have to give up playing the latest battle royale slop

Yeah and it's always followed with the most annoying remark they can muster about Linux lol. G*mers just need to be insufferable.
