I'm sure no one in this community needs to be convinced to try Linux. But I love it every time I see a non-Linux person trying Linux and showing other people that it works. (Also nice to see that Jeff Gerstmann is still around and doing alright after getting screwed over by Gamespot for like 15 years.)

I'm not annoyed that you don't love linux, I'm annoyed that you don't understand what words mean and think you have a higher level of relevant experience than you actually do, that you are going out of your way to feel insulted.

It points toward you being the kind of entitled and emotionally unstable person that people who actually are experienced with linux tend to have PTSD from consistently dealing with.

And your subsequent comment I am here replying to confirms it.

I didn't tell you to not be an idiot, I didn't call you dumb, I gave you the blueprint of a way to become a more experienced linux user, or a functional alternative to that.

Nobody in this thread called you dumb or an idiot, unless I somehow have someone who replied to you already blocked for some reason.

Your ego is too large, that is why 'linux people' don't like you; you're the arrogant entitled asshole who is unwilling to either learn or accept your own limitations.

Normally, in IT departments, acting the way you've acted would get you flagged or categorized as a more hostile or combatative client... here on lemmy, nobody is being paid to deal with your ego.
