yeah the linux community is full of some of the worst, most elitist people ive ever met, with their heads so far up their asses they come back out their own mouths

specifically the #arch community

i say this as an arch user lmao i like the os and its ecosystem but the people who talk about it a lot and "answer" questions ("go read the wiki" is not an answer, it's autofellative dismissal) are so awful

@rachaelspooky ye, the wiki is a bit of a mess too, and with how much the linux desktop has changed recently, very out of date, there is some stuff still referring to long deprecated components

@rachaelspooky i think the biggest failing of the Linux circles is that they don't understand that for most people fucking around with the OS is not a hobby, and they run Linux because it's the least insufferable OS for them

like, myself as an example, i don't use Void because i like running weird distros or whatever, i use it because it's the least insufferable to maintain while providing adequate flexibility for my use

and the reason Windows users move to Linux is generally not because they actually want to use Linux, it's because Windows is a nightmare nowadays and macs are expensive (and don't run a lot of games), so Linux is the least infuriating option
