Honestly, I don't really care what you think.
Linux users say that this is some kind of easy to use, can replace windows at any point in time, yet one of the most popular distros in existence is definitely not ready for prime time.
My day 2 and 3 posts have been pretty highly upvoted! Almost like linux users only like hearing the good and not the bad.
- Linux users say that this is some kind of easy to use, can replace windows at any point in time, yet one of the most popular distros in existence is definitely not ready for prime time.
Well should we consider device specific issues? First of all thoose device manufacturers never made it for linux and when a new device comes in, its likely broken.
What I would say linux can easily replace windows is when a working linux install(i.e. when its running in a fully compatible device), can do all computing needs. And I think linux actually does that.
I know you wouldn't buy a new device for linux but even windows when you manually install in a device requires much setup and driver installs to get working well. But in the windows side, drivers are always availiable unlike in linux where community needs to reverse engineer and make the drivers themselves, which is always late than windows.

The feeling is reciprocal.
Then feel free to fuck off.
You came in here and started this saying it's basically my fault I had a bad time with Fedora. Your condescending and pretentious attitude has been noted, but I'm a new user to Linux my man. None of this is familiar. As my day 2 and 3 posts show I can actually troubleshoot and fix things, if I couldn't figure it out, I'd say it's indicative of production and deployment issues on the developers end.
But please feel free to not respond, you're exactly the kind of Linux user that gives the community it's negative stigma.
Then feel free to fuck off.
I'll come back to this at the end.

I'm the OP of the post; you came in here.

It is/was.

I'll come back to this further down.
[...] but I'm a new user to Linux my man.
And evidently a very ignorant one at that. You come at it with preconceived notions of how distributions should work, and then get angry when they don't, when five minutes of googling could have prevented your problems. Only to be followed by troll-level low effort rants on the internet.
None of this is familiar.
And blind trial and error is no good way to change that.

Or, your aforementioned ignorance and wrong preconceived notions of how you think things should work.
As your day 1 post shows, you have the attention span of a squirrel and frustration tolerance of a toddler. Your assumption, that your opinion on a distribution, after spending less than one day with it, has any merit or value is plain arrogant.
But please feel free to not respond, [...]
You can always walk away from this.
[...] you're exactly the kind of Linux user that gives the community it's negative stigma.
You are exactly the kind of person, why I'm in favor of something akin to a drivers license for computers.
[...] Your condescending and pretentious attitude has been noted, [...]
There's nothing noteworthy about your arrogance, ignorance, lack of frustration tolerance and attention span.
Then feel free to fuck off.
Your opinions have the substance of a vacuum and structural integrity of a house of cards. Do yourself and "us" (the linux community) a favor and kindly fuck off yourself.
I'm not even going to do you the dignity of reading this.
Consistent in your ignorance.
And you, rather than helping someone who admitted that they were new to the community and trying to learn, decided to just be a dick.
You've clearly not read his post and comments. He's a massive asshole.
I did. As someone who is also new to Linux and to programming, I've run into similar hurdles and it is frustrating. Now I'm not trying to build a gaming system, but just something to learn on. I'm still learning to read through and interpret documentation and it often get way too over my head that I need to ask the community for help; and honestly, I don't like to because of reactions like yours.
It's really disheartening to come to the community, try to ask for help and to be told that I should just do it right, or to catch flak for not asking the rifht question, or to have someone share a chunk of code and say, "just use this," which doesn't help me learn.
To be clear, my previous comment was a pre-coffee and just irked me in the wrong way; I do owe you an apology for that so, sorry.

And there's nothing wrong with that. And if you just ask, not even nicely, you'll usually get productive help. I know I've provided help many times, no matter how "noobish" the question.

If you don't act like a massive asshole, you don't get such reactions.

He didn't come and asked. He ranted and shat on everything and everybody. He even received some help despite that. His reaction was offensive and more verbal diarrhea.

Don't sweat it. My skin is thicker than that.
I hear you I hear you. Whenever people ask me about my device I usually tell them that you just exchange the windows problems for linux problems. I don't mind fixing things as much because the device really feels like my own so I am more forgiving than I was on my other devices. Don't know how that is for other distros since there are so many but in my experience but yeah I've lost count of how many times I've had to repair my bluetooth audio.
