    I really don’t think he was acting or anything. Like someone else said, if he knew how it worked he could have used it as a moment to teach others right? Instead he just completely fumbled everything, said it was set up incorrectly and blamed the website for it. Which given recent events is such a Linus thing to do…

      I thought he made it explicit going into the Linux challenge but it’s not stated clearly as such in the first ep (Linux Hates Me - Daily Driver Challenge Pt.1).

      In the video Linus says:

      • he could use industry contacts/internal resources to decided which Linux distro to use for gaming but wanted to use the same resources as anyone else would have
      • Linux gets sold on it’s customization but “speaking on behalf of normies, I don’t want …”
      • “in my defense a lot of that stuff was jargon that an average user might not understand” in regards to the PopOS event (apt install steam ~ type yes do as I say).
