You've never met someone IRL who uses Linux? That's kind of surprising to me. I've had a couple coworkers who use it, and I also had some people in college in my classes who used it too.
Do ypu by chance work anything computer related?
We're in a Linux ~~subreddit~~ community so chances are good that someone into Linux would also be more into tech than the average person, and more likely to have a tech related job :P
Yes I'm a web developer and I run Linux as my only OS currently.
Subreddit?!
Sorry, community.
Reddit is a really hard habit to break after being there for almost two decades.
Let's hope that Lemmy lasts longer than Reddit did.
Reddit lasted longer than Digg.
Well there is the reason that your coworkers use linux. I can assure you in a normal office job or something like that you will likely not find a person wich uses linux
I think the poster meant "they never met a woman getting excited about them being a linux users"
