    The one thing keeping me from going all-in on Linux is the users being insufferable.

      You can just use linux. You don’t have to hang out with them.

      You’re seeing insufferable people who also happen to use Linux, as insufferable people also like to be early adopters so they can say they are different and therefore better.

      There are plenty of super helpful people in the community, and Linux is well past the early adopter phase. The transition from Windows is smoother than it has ever been.

        Man they must really hate the mass uptake. Makes them less special with every install.

        (I keed, we all know they identity politic with the distros instead)

      Yes, a lot of Linux users are insufferable, but there are also people willing to help in a nice and normal manner …

      I think the Doctor Who fanbase is the actual worst out of all fanbases but I still like watching the show. you don’t have to participate in the community if you want to use something. I use Linux but I’m not wearing thigh high socks and sitting in the Arch discord all day.

      “I won’t use this thing, because fans of this thing are annoying.” The willingness of people to cut off their nose to spite their face never fails to amaze me.
