The fediverse is very linux oriented I see again and again.
Sadly most Linux users are so deep into it that they don't understand the pain of transition from something known to something that you have to invest significant time into to get running as you want it to.
And whenever people say this, several people post Linux versions that are supposedly super easy to set up and very similar to windows.... Which shows that they are no longer able to see the relevant differences.
I find it annoying. Essentially as someone who has tried to switch to linux on my own terms(!) and that's not possible without investing more time than a family dad with job is prepared to invest.
I mean just look at the posts in here. It like reading posts from religious people who would love to go from door to door to "spread the word."
Linux users are the sort of people who will tell you that vinyl just produces superior sound quality. It's a sort of cult really.
Linux systems are fine but they are hardly the pain free, "it just works" solution that the community likes to constantly claim that it is.
Linux user here, vynil sucks! Only those who swallow nostalgia like it :D
The thing is you are the mercy of "place big company name here" endless greed and whims , so it is no longer a "come to the cult" thing, they are pushing users away in a swallow or else fashion. The idea of Microsoft , Playstation, etc is squeeze you , get subscription from you and spoonfed all their crap to you wether you like it or not. All of it while trafficking with your personal data.
I was a windows 11 gamer, I know Linux some times may not be a walk in the park, specially if you have certain gpus, but all in all to me it is the most sane option to choose nowadays.
