I am kinda sick of seeing this attitude of being hostile towards "computer nerds", particularly in the #Linux space in recent years. Anytime something isn't trivially easy to resolve or requires a little bit of reading a manual or doesn't work as expected (i.e. as it does on windows) there is whining about how we hate "normal people" (garbage term btw) and are just a bunch of antisocial losers.
Instead of behaving shitty, you could make an effort to actually learn the new environment that YOU chose to get into. Hells you can even ask us for help, and I'm certain some will. But if you instead decide to be an ass, please just stay on windows.

@mezz@mstdn.games Linux is very user-friendly but it is also picky sbout what users it wants to be friendly with. Funny meme but also very true - if you don't bother to learn ANYTHING that's a you problem, not a linux problem. Nobody (young nor old) inately knows how to use Windows or MacOS, they are not intuitive OSes, they both require skills learned over years of training (even if you don't/didn't realise it). If you make the effort, help exists and is waiting all over the internet.
