    I’d never used Linux before getting a Steam Deck. It’s now my preferred PC. But it’s also super-duper polished and painless.

      I have always liked Windows, but I’m always two versions behind and have never actually experienced any other OS. I’m open to Linux, but it also scares the shit out of me because I’ll essentially go back to knowing fuck all about the OS on my PC.

      And I’ve also heard gaming can be complicated on Linux, whether or not that’s true.

    Coming on Lemmy and complaining in ShowerThoughts that there are too many Lemmy users complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers

    If every prostitute approached you and had to tell you how much better she is at something than your current SO/wife, you should ditch your SO in favor of prostitutes, even though you’re not there for service.

    Then it would be like Lemmy.

    More like a bar with too many drunk people. It is understandable that they are there and its also expected that there are sober people there but it gets annoying when the drunk people keep spilling alcohol on you. Tho i dont its it that bad.

      Yeah, I agree Linux is actually just a really solid OS

    Do people REALLY complain about Linux? There are nutters everywhere but I don’t think this is really a thing.

      No it isn’t a thing, I’ve seen a couple memes and a new community about how Linux sucks but I’m pretty sure it’s either parody or trolling. Mine was an actual shower thought when I was thinking about that, rather than a complaint

        Complaining that linux sucks, and complaining that there are too many linux users is two vastly different things. I think linux sucks, but I also wish there were more users because then there would be more programs for it, and it would also be better.

          Yeah, I kind of agree here. I’d love to switch to Linux as my every day driver, but some things keep me tied to windows. Gaming is getting better on Linux by the day, but I still can’t use Ableton on Linux, and that’s basically a deal breaker for me. I think the newest Push has Linux support though, so who knows? Maybe one day.

    I don’t care how many people use it, but it seems to pop up (unwarranted) in darned near every sub I’m in. Enjoying something is fine, but it’s best to not let any single thing become your identity or define you as a person.

    It’s contagious. I caught the Linux over the weekend. It’s the Kubuntu strain of the disease, so I think it’s a mild case. But there’s always a risk it can spread to full-blown Arch.
