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”.
To be fair, most distros are fine and relatively easy to install. The same kind of user that needs a Linux nerd to help them choose isn’t going to notice the subtle differences between them on a daily basis. Also, if the user doesn’t like the experience of one, they can just switch to something else.
