Ubuntu’s role in the ecosystem is important. They are good at first luring people into using linux. Then the users get pissed off of Ubuntu, because of Snap, ads, or whatever random crap they know from Windows. Finally, they move on to better options, be it Arch, Debian, or Puppy. Ubuntu ensures they don’t all stick to the same

Tight couch, ouch!

Actually, it’s GNU/Linux

huh, tipping as outsourced management. Never thought of it like that. So it’s a win-win: Lower wages and less work to do!

Counter question: Why does everyone call it “engine X” and not “enjinx”, which would be the way cooler pronunciation?

Thank you. In that sense I find OP’s question misleading: Option 1 should be “guy who really likes to talk about the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project”

Good luck! The way I see it: Linux has its issues, but so do Windows and Mac OS (and others). The cool thing with Linux though is that for many problems you can create/find some form of error logs, google them, and someone online will help you. In most cases they have solved that problem already.

Windows problems often feel like black magic: Something doesn’t work, but all you can do is knock on your laptop, turn it off and on again, and pray. Unless you’re lucky and find a shady program online that you can download and install, hoping the programmers mean well.

With Mac OS, you can often solve problems by throwing money at them. But sometimes that doesn’t work and then you can’t do anything about them and just have to accept the one way to use your computer correctly.

So in that sense I don’t think Linux is “harder”. There are problems of course, but you learn to think differently about them and are often able to solve them.

Republican brain should be depicted as considerably smaller though

Totally next to the linux guy. In fact, I was in such a situation on the train before. I was just there working and the person sitting next to me noticed I had a linux desktop (in fact, GNU/Linux, btw). They were curious and vaguely interested in switching to linux for a while, so we had a nice conversation about this.

I would not bring this up myself, but it’s cool that this happens sometimes (i.e., once in a few decades of life so far)

Not getting yelled at on the Linux kernel mailing list

Actually, it’s GNU/GNU/Anything

MAVA!
