    I laughed. This is the perfect response. Look at the triggered people!

    Linux evangelists, man… They’re insufferable. I love Linux, but it’s not the only OS worth having in 2024. Like, I actually hate Apple but I still have a computer that boots it in my place. It’s okay to have lots of options!

      Like I told the guy accusing me of trolling, I’m not even trying to “trigger” anyone, it’s just that people will walk you through the same three basic troubleshooting options whenever you point out you bumped into a compatibility issue and it gets annoying after a while.

      Agreed on the other thing, though. I actively want Linux on desktop/laptop to be better. I actively like many things about it already, which is why I was trying to set it up on this thing in the first place. I use it on other devices that have specific support for it, from SBCs to the Steam Deck. And I definitely also have issues, concerns and pet peeves with Windows, Android variants, MacOS, iOS, iPadOS and every other alternative out there.

      I just don’t particularly care to stick to a single thing and will use whatever the path of least resistance is for each application. Anything else seems nuts. An OS is a utility, not a sports team. It’s like rooting for an AC manufacturer.
