    I don’t know any other group of people so far up their own asses about what software they use. If using linux gives you a superiority complex, I assume you have nothing else going on in your life.

    That being said I love linux and will continue to use it.

      Whilst from my limited knowledge of the Linux community, that what you said appears to be true, I’m starting to feel like this platform in general has a sort of hostility issue. Or at least a toxicity one. Like I posted a fun red bull meme and, though the meme itself was well received, the commenters ripped each other’s heads off in a debate over sugar and aspartame. Im not even joking

        Its hard for me to tell if this community is like that because it already had a bunch of linux users or if its just part of the whole leftist purity testing culture going on here. To have an answer for your actual question, I started with linux mint because people said it would be easy and it was. Eventually some ubuntu packages breaking stuff annoyed me so i moved to LMDE for stability (uses debian packages instead which have a higher standard for stability). Then I installed KDE plasma because some games run better on Wayland instead of x11 on my machine.

      That is precisely the… ‘Nirvana’ point that I was bloody well dreading.

      Like-- I knew it had to be something, right, but why the superiority and viciousness point of inflection? Why the total excursionist aspect of Linux, right?

      (bah, I’m retreating in to Jim Jefferies mode, I’ll have you know)
