    It’s all good, diversity and shit… until somebody asks “How do I install Kali Linux for daily driving?”

      Reminds me of when I was looking up an issue for Kali Linux and saw like 10 different reddit threads, all full of “don’t use Kali Linux unless you know how to use it”. Which was very helpful when I had to use it for my coursework.

      Side note: the most downvoted comment contained actual advice that fixed my problem.

      That’s beyond bad taste and into active stupidity.

    Shaming people for using Ubuntu or other “easy” distros is how you prevent people from joining the community long term. We’d be better served by being welcoming and understanding of people

    Diversity is a huge strength of Linux. We should encourage users to use whatever works for them.

    I sure hope you posted this from a distro that I like, if not then there may be consequences.

      Back in 2007 a Linux user wished on a monkey’s paw that Linux would be the most popular operating system in regular use, and then Android was unveiled.

      Maybe it was only said as a meme, but, I like gnome quite a lot. I find it about 10x less annoying than W10/W11 and 7x less annoying than MacOS. What else should I be taking a look at though?
