XDA claim they're a "leading tech publication".

They published an article titled: "Why I like Linux on my Steam Deck but not my desktop"

-> Uses tiny and basically unsupported obscure Linux distribution to make a case against it on the desktop.

-> Also thinks somehow Proton is only on Steam Deck?

Please, if you're going to publish a Linux article, get your writers to do more than 1 minute research into it.

There's this weird repeating problem of people expecting to instantly know how something works, despite basically never using it.

I see this everywhere, not just Linux. In this case though, I see articles like it still *all the time* and the big issue is just to get clicks.

@gamingonlinux this brings up an interesting dichotomy with videogames. if you are bad at a videogame and would like it to be more welcome to new players you are told to "git gud". i wonder if this guy feels the same about dark souls as he does about linux.
