It’s really sad that this needs to be said. I 100% agree with the sentiment. The reason I use Linux is because most of my work requires Linux, but I resisted it for a really long time because communities like these are just incredibly toxic and insufferable. Sometimes looking at this community makes me want to rage-boot Windows and become a C# dev all over again.
In this case I actually mainly meant MacOS, which has a relatively big market share. Though for me personally it’s Linux, it applies to all other operating systems, with MacOS being the one large enough that people who use windows can’t ignore it. I’m not a fan of these “here’s what you need to know” titles because it doesn’t add anything, the title would be functionally the same without it. I was making fun of this by saying that I don’t need to know this and thus showing that (this part of) the title is only included to get more clicks
There’s absolutely zero need to mention any other OS than Windows if the article is about Windows.
I guarantee you that 2025 will not be the year of the Linux desktop, just like 2024 wasn’t, and just like 2023 wasn’t, just like 2022 wasn’t…
Signed,
Linux users that aren’t annoying and aren’t driving people away from using Linux with their self-righteous smugness.
i don’t see how this is annoying when it is literally posted to a community called “linuxmemes”
This is just a meme in a linuxmemes community. There is no need to be offended.
Im sure by next december arch will have 51% of desktop os market share.
I don’t.
Pretty sure the success of Linux will not ride or die on the Charisma stat of its users.
You are not annoying?
