I’m moving my posts from Reddit to Lemmy before delete them.

This post is from 2021-11-11.

It should’ve been apt-get but welp.

      You blamed him for a bug in the OS because he didn’t do things exactly how you think they should be done. You didn’t give an opinion, you shifted blame.

      Sorry you feel like having a discussion is toxic, but telling someone you stopped reading half way through and saying goodbye is, in fact, toxic behavior.

      I’m fine not having a discussion with you further.

        If I install an operating system from an image built within the last 20 years, it being able to install a single piece of software is a perfectly reasonable expectation.

        Yes, it’s good practice to check for updates first. You do it, I do it. But Linus here represents something special here. He is a technical user but unfamiliar with Linux. If he can cause a system to completely break by simply asking it to install one piece of software in a standard way, then what hope is there for a layman?

        Getting on your high horse and talking about the “right” order to do things makes you seem like an elitist looking down on the poor peons who dare to try and use their OS in any other way than the one you deem correct. That’s why people think you’re upset.

        Oh, and as for blaming Linus, you did literally say it was Linus’ user error and that he only has himself to blame. Your words, not mine.

            What are you doing, if not placing the blame on the user by calling it a “user error”?

            This exact thing actually was user error. I mean, I like my people Linus, Luke, Emily and the others like every other average tech person… But when Steam is the absolute first thing you go for after installing your OS, then, sorry, but then you have only yourself to blame.

            Your exact words, taken from your post. You literally said that he has only himself to blame.
