    I don’t understand why anybody would complain about that. It’s like complaining that too many people wear jeans.

      Maybe because jeans wearers don’t spam up every thread about clothing with “JUST WEAR JEANS!”

        They propably would if a common topic of discussion was “this is how leggings have got worse today”

        I’ve only been on lemmy for a short time but I haven’t seen any Linux users spamming any threads that way. This complaint is the first sign I’ve seen that anybody even has that idea. It reminds me of crusty old farts who see a gay character in a sitcom and say OMG it’s all about the gays now!!!

          Unless its something that can’t be done in a browser! Then whip out the Linux bible and download wine and virtualbox because you’re using windows baby!

            I honestly cannot tell you the last time I ran windows to do anything. Like I’ll have to do some tinkering on the steam deck soon for the first time in a long time to get the sims playing for my SO, but that is still way easier then maintaining another whole OS, especially like windows where they hit my fam with UX updates that piss them off.

          How else are you going to play FreeDoom if you can’t get Linux to run on it?

      I think OP is confusing the fact that people are sick of Linux users preaching with people using Linux.
