I’m here from Reddit. They banned me for absolutely no reason. That’s frustrating. How works Lemmy ?

    People around here really love Linux.

    Not saying it’s a bad thing. Linux is great.

    But people around here reeeealy love Linux.

      I really really reaaheeeheeheeheely love Linux. But the rest shouldn’t be an ass about it. Even though it is superior (my opinion) there is plenty of OS’es to go around for everyone. And to each their own.

      The choice of an OS doesn’t give anyone permission to be smug and condenscending.

      By the way I use whatever works at the moment.

        IMO, Linux users (myself among them, fwiw) are broadly less insufferable now that Windows shat the bed so hard and replacing/upgrading machines became unaffordable.

        I see a lot less “only rubes use Windows, I run Linux 😎” attitudes and more “Linux gave me my computer back” which reconverted me after a long Linux hiatus sparked by impossible driver puzzles on a busted netbook in the early 2010s.

        Every machine in my home runs CachyOS and it removed stress from our lives. Windows at this point is like a neglectful ex, and KDE the new partner that treats me right 😊

          Think about it as you can leave a bad landlord or bad housemates without leaving your friends and communities

      If Linux is so great why does my laptop’s Nvidia graphics card not Just Work™ out of the box?
