I’m an avid Void user, so I get the value of linux. But I cringe every time I see a comment like this. The OP has asked a specific question about a specific version of a specific OS. Someone asking about an OS should not be considered an invitation to tell them about another.
It's like going on a car sub where someone's asking how to repair the brakes on a Ford Focus, and someone replying "Well I have a Hyundai i20 and it doesn't have that problem"
Fuckin irritating kids
More like going on a car sub where someone is asking for a specific car for free, and someone replying "well I have a different car you can have for free"
Thank you for saying this! The Linux virtue signaling is so strong around here that it really is off putting. Like, we get it. You're a super duper computer person that's super duper smart and has made the smartest of smart choices in your OS.
I've been a programmer for 13 years now and can do anything from the command line yet I still think GNU/Linux is garbage as a desktop OS... it has nothing to do with being good with computers. The only good argument for Linux is a FOSS only mentality
