Lemmy eats this shit up, feeds their Linux-superiority complex, like a bunch a teenage atheists who just figured out god isn’t real and needs to tell everyone what idiots they are.
Ran Linux as a daily driver, many versions, on and off, for 20-years. Over all, it’s a pain in the ass. Built several “little old lady” laptops for charity customers. Linux works a charm if all you need is FaceBook and email!
It amazes me that lemmy evangelizes Linux, then posts 100 comments about how this, that and the other Linux OS sucks, has security issues, how theirs is superior, and “why doesn’t my $peripheral work?” And the answers are always the same, "You just have to $directions.* I don’t need $directions for my shit to work on Windows.

“I don’t have that issue. Never seen it.”
No rebuttals, no nothing, just “fuck you for saying so”. Angry new atheists.
I don’t give a crap what OS you use. A lot of us aren’t evangelizing anything, we’re just trying to bring people up-to-date on the current state of Linux, which is pretty good to be honest. That is then misinterpreted as elitism because tone of voice isn’t transmitted over text.
People are concerned about the direction Windows is going and a lot of us are justifiably mad about it. But mentioning Linux instead of linking to the debloat scripts and masgrave summons people that hate the Linux of 10-20 years ago.
When I lost my faith in religion I was annoying because it had wasted so much of my time and effort, as well as causing stress and creating issues where none existed. I wanted other people to feel as free as I did, and it was obvious that it was more reasonable to switch after I had, and it was easy.

Maybe just test your reasoning. Try Linux, or test the boundaries of your faith. See how it feels. Maybe other people have a point, as annoying as they may be.
Personally, I don’t push the religion thing anymore. I don’t feel like it does much good and is a waste of my time. Pushing Linux though? Yeah, that does do good, for the people switching and for the ecosystem. The more people move off of Windows and other closed platforms the more open things become, and the more choices consumers get.
IT’S ALL BROKEN, ALL OF IT!"

I take it you tried Linux and found it too difficult?

Get a life, man
Feels like you bought into the MSCE religion of the early 2000’s and are annoyed at all the infidels that didn’t.
I get it, but maybe there’s a reason?
