Hate this guy.

There is only one Linus in Linux. Torvalds.

I'm also not a fan of this guy, but as far as I know LTT is aggressively anti Linux and doesn't claim to be representative of or even part of the Linux community. I think one of his team members is pro Linux, but I don't know anything about that person.

I will admit that the first time I watched LTT I did think it was going to be about Linux.

Maybe I'm wrong?

It's complicated, Linus at home wants the baby easy setup that just works, and in his mind Linux will only meet that need for him once steamos is out. He accidentally nuked his pop_os! installation setup if that tells you how software illiterate he can be sometimes.

There team is very different in opinions and it's not uncommon for them to be making an amazing server build that's clearly on linux. They use MacOS for their video editors. It's just more complicated than any one sentence can boil it down to.

I'd argue with calling him software illiterate, I think as a first time linux user, using pop_os! which was kind of obscure back then (even is now if you ask me), he should have been some computer mage not to run into some similar problem eventually. I mean steam uninstalling the desktop? Sure if you know linux you will have several clues that this is about to happen, but someone coming from windows who doesn't even know yet what a desktop environment on linux is or how it operates can't be expected to understand instantly. When I came over to linux I certainly didn't.

I think Linus is like average windows poweruser level. If he never touched the software before, he won't magically understand it, but if he manages to fuck up bad, that means most other people would have too. I guess it's all just a question of where you draw the line for software illiteracy. For me it's having to explain someone how to take a screenshot or log into Facebook (I love my Grandpa by the way).
