This was the main type of criticism for Linuxsucks101 on Reddit when it started, and now it’s poppin’. We’ve had to re-launch here so of course it’s slow to the get go.
The criticism is a pathetic attempt to marginalize. The other attitude is ‘no open discussion / debate’ -but as you see here, that’s not really what they do.

Do educated people resort to name-calling and personal insults in a debate?

You have the internet at your fingertips. -It’s right there accessible in seconds, but LiGNUts prefer wasting time bickering over stupid crap (like you’re doing) instead of acknowledging that what I wrote was factual and easily verifiable at the source given. -It’s why a large population is turning against you and why your community is accurately labeled toxic.

Sorry, some confusion in what I was replying to. Anyway, I had already given the source (reddit). Sorry that Linux advocates are so allergic to search engines. www.reddit.com/search/?q=how+to+force+steam+pop-u… If you’re using VimiumC or Simple Search, the code for automatically doing this yourself as easy af:

Paraphrase to misinform.

Linux subs on Reddit published how to manipulate the survey. It’s out in the open, not removed after years and reflects the character of the GNU/GPL cult to manipulate statistics and perceptions.

"And where are your “not anecdotes” when claiming that people do more tinkering than playing on linux machines? "
Ever heard of a search engine or professional reviews? -Sorry forgot LiGNUts are allergic to modern tech or common sense.

Yes, anecdotes are poor sources. ‘works on my machine’ ignores that same model motherboards can have different WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, and sound chips. -Plain old common sense for people that can actually discuss tech instead of parrot OS propaganda.

Your anecdotes contradict professional tests.

‘Ok, I’ll ask later" full screen ads, ads in the start menu, ignoring default search engine or browser settings when it could. It was a hostile user experience.’
Propaganda, or easy to turn off permanently.
‘Windows shill’
Yes, that’s why I suggest Haiku, BSD, Harmony, and Mac.
The propaganda is strong with you.

It’s supposed to eliminate the issues of Linux like unstable ABI/API, and fragmentation. -But like with Steamdeck, it’s probably going to have people saying they do more tinkering than actual gaming. Real PC gamers use Windows.
