    The most annoying thing about Lemmy is all the Linux bros crawling out of their holes when the word “windows” is mentioned.

      It is extremely irritating - admittedly I used to do the same many moons ago but then I grew up.

      I think with experience/perspective people can see that windows is needed. There’s just no way all the computer illiterate people (most people) will be able for Linux, not unless it’s simplified to be exactly like windows… (I don’t want to hear about how your 120 year old grandma learned arch at 100 having never touched a computer before and now teaches software dev - exceptions prove the rule)

      I also grow tired of every year hearing it’s going to be the year of Linux desktop.

      Why? Do you feel like you are team Microsoft and anyone suggesting you could have a better experience on another operating system is the enemy?

        Nope. As a Linux user, even I’m annoyed.

        I’ve seen people ask legitimate Windows troubleshooting questions and then don’t get an answer but dozens, if not more, messages to switch to linux.

        It drives people away.

          I’m also a decade long Linux user and it drives me insane too. I’m happy to support someone if they have questions ABOUT Linux, but otherwise I don’t shove it down their throat or really mention it. I nearly lost friends being the way so many other Linux users are and that was the changing point for me.

          Linux users do this and then wonder why no one wants to switch to linux.

          I’ll admit it’s done the opposite to me. Gonna make the switch any day now.

            Pfft. If you’re not building your Linux from scratch, are you really linuxing?
