You can just use linux. You don’t have to hang out with them.

I think the Doctor Who fanbase is the actual worst out of all fanbases but I still like watching the show. you don’t have to participate in the community if you want to use something. I use Linux but I’m not wearing thigh high socks and sitting in the Arch discord all day.

Unfortunately my experiences with linux tell me that i will have to engage with the community, because there will be shit i need to look up and fix fairly often.

Yes, a lot of Linux users are insufferable, but there are also people willing to help in a nice and normal manner …

Those are not the ones crawling out of the woodworks.

Saldy you are mostly right, bnut there are people like me who want to help (as far as I can)

You’re seeing insufferable people who also happen to use Linux, as insufferable people also like to be early adopters so they can say they are different and therefore better.
There are plenty of super helpful people in the community, and Linux is well past the early adopter phase. The transition from Windows is smoother than it has ever been.

Man they must relaly hate the mass uptake. Makes them less special with every install.
(I keed, we all know they identity politic with the distros instead)

“I won’t use this thing, because fans of this thing are annoying.” The willingness of people to cut off their nose to spite their face never fails to amaze me.
