'Everyone can use Linux. What do you need Windows/MacOS for? Some stupid game you barely play anyway? Stupid MS office apps that your company makes you use?
I even got my granny to use Linux, one day I just swapped out her stupid windows and she never even noticed.'

I see a lot of that around here. It's blatantly not true, and no not *everybody* can just 'up and use linux' so easily.
Screen-reader users for example.

I'm happy some can be so blazé about it, but when a screen-reader is your gateway to the world of computing, jumping on the Linux bandwagon is neither simple nor as easy as pie.

@Pawpower I'll virtually fuck'em and chuck'em. I have no time for it honestly, and just don't care. I'll piss around with Linux in a VM or whatever, but I'll not be using it as a primary OS any time soon. lol

@FreakyFwoof @Pawpower I jsut wish people would let pople use what hey like without being pushy about the thing they like to use themselves. Suggest, sure, but don't get all batshit about it if someone is like no I'm good.

@blindbat84 @Pawpower Oh come on, you have to be good, my way. Not that way, that's the silly way. Only this way, not that way. lol
