You’re the exact reason OP is feeling alienated.

You found the solution yourself: Start to care about Linux :')

If you can read you can realize that OP is being alienated by the lack of other topics, not by Linux.

If you don’t care about Linux (at least a little), you don’t care about property rights (including right to repair), digital freedom, privacy, and a whole host of other important social issues. So yeah, everybody – and especially everybody informed enough to understand the advantages of the Fediverse – really ought to care about Linux.
'Course, caring about it and wanting to talk about it are totally different things, and I can’t fault OP at all for not being interested in talking about it.

You: “if you care about real issues, that means you have to use or want to use this niche and still pretty annoying to use operating system!”
Every single sane adult in earshot: “youre a fucking moron”
Linux is not the beacon of social justice youre pretending it is bud, and youre a walking example of the linux chud the internet at large mocks.

Maybe there are rights more immediately important to people than the vague, long term rights associated with an open source operating system for their computer?

Please enlighten me how Linux will save Palestinian children from being bombed

“You’re literally not allowed to be concerned with more than one problem in the world at a time, and fuck you if it isn’t the same one that’s my pet issue.” – @geophysicist@discuss.tchncs.de, paraphrased

“everybody ought to care about Linux” - you, a few minutes ago. I’m taking your statement to the extreme to show how ridiculous it is
Maybe Palestinian children shouldn’t need to care about Linux. Maybe there are also lots of other people who shouldn’t need to care about Linux. My point was to make you see outside of your world

Do they have windows in the basements trolls hang out in?
geophysicist@discuss.tchncs.de 7 months ago
I don’t think so no. You’ve really gotta put some force into it to create one

This is the kind of response that causes quips like that “Linux users are the vegans of tech” response above.
Try being less strident and off-putting and perhaps you might even get more Linux users.
