    He keeps saying that he wants to go into this without first getting outside help. Like they are learning this the hard way. Although some of the complaints I heard in this video were basically, “I don’t know how to use this software it is a problem.”

    But if he were a brand new Windows user he would have the same kinds of complaints. So not knowing to use Pacman on manjaro is not really a problem with Linux. It’s a problem with his preparation and assumptions.

      He keeps saying that he wants to go into this without first getting outside help.

      But he could just read a guide instead of winging it? They do PC build guides constantly and never complain when there is some gotcha or they have to use tools or read a manual.

      This is only acting dumb to get engagement and maybe some FOSS people to be inspired by the channel to pick up the hobby of acquiring insane amounts of useless consumer electronics.

      Also what’s Linux going to do if they talk shit about them? Stop sending free products or not sponsor them?

      Speaking of which, this post was sponsored by the Linux foundation. Linux is the free and open source operating system that will power your everyday computing needs. It runs on all devices from your fridge to your supercomputer and can be fully customized via their kconfig utility.
