My only remaining real problems are:

  • The community often pushing more "elitist" solutions over easier ones, see all the Vim fanboys.
  • Coming from the aforementioned issue, your only viable debugger is either GDB with its obtuse TUI or some GUI hackjob on top of that.

I find that I just don't really know what I'm doing half the time, and find it difficult to find help at a genuinely practical level. It's either total beginner "This is called the terminal" or assumes you already know exactly what you're doing. Like the installation instructions for something I was looking at was literally "usual cmake build" with absolutely zero elaboration what that means. The other thing I don't like is when you look up how to do something and the answers are always "copy and paste this code" without explaining what any of it is or what it does.

Something else I'm still not at all sure about is where you're supposed to install things. Like at least on Windows I know you just bang everything in "Program files", but now there's bin, etc, home, usr, and whatever else and don't know where you're supposed to actually put things.

At this point, it’s just insecurity about stuff not working right on Windows now.


To that point:

At the moment, on my dual boot desktop, hardware acceleration and video playback are busted in Chromium browsers on Windows. But it works perfectly fine in Wayland linux. And I don’t really know why.

This is fascinating to me, as the situation was reversed about a year ago.

And if I were Windows only, without years of experience under the belt to make Linux seem less daunting, I’d be feeling anxious about that.

Not that I’m a Linux fanboy: Windows is just better for some specific things. But still, I’m not going to either OS booth to complain.

Survivorship bias, those that move along don’t really get remembered

Linux is pretty nice.

I have my issues with it, but they’re more on the UI side of things.

I love nixos, I really like Fedora silver blue, and I’m a huge fan of podman — it feels like all the right compromises.

What the fuck does the threadiverse even want for itself? Do you see yourself as an enshittification-resistant replacement for Reddit, or a communist Linux forum? This comic only makes sense if it's the latter.

Sir, this is a shitpost community.

Let 'em vent. And then ignore or educate them, if they're open.

The hypocrisy! “Linux bros” are constantly shitting all over Mac and Windows, even more than they shit all over every flavor of *nix that isn’t their preferred flavor.
