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”.

    Y’know, I would actually agree that due to it’s obnoxious idiosyncrasies Windows is often harder to use than many Linux distributions. This is a big part of why I used to recommend people switch to Linux to begin with. Though, assuming I’m understanding your comment, I can’t see that as a praise for Windows, nor as a testament to the skill of Windows users. A testament to their hardheadedness, maybe.
