    How this same conversation can sound to non-technical folks:

    “my boyfriend left his dirty socks in the living room AGAIN.”

    “Well maybe you should switch boyfriends”

    “…what?”

        Are we really going to start enlightened centrist memes over Linux?

        I say this as someone who daily drives Linux on their framework laptop, who self hosts jellyfin, home assistant, searxng, ollama, etc.

        For a lot of folks, their lives don’t revolve around computers. I know that folks on Lemmy tend to skew more towards that computer lifecycle, but we gotta recognize that we’re out of the norm in that regard.
