People online complain that Linux is hard to install for new users. But who are these people and why do they levy these complaints? The biggest barrier for the new Linux user isn't the installer; i...
ROFL. Kiddo, I’ve been contributing to OSS for over two decades. The day I start caring about what non-contributors think is the day I stop writing code. Either show up with patches or STFU.
Yeah, you don’t pay for software, you pay for support that won’t insult you. Seeking support for FOSS stuff is like running a gauntlet of people who insist you’re too stupid to use it.
If we want normies to use FOSS, the community needs to stop saying normies don’t deserve FOSS.
We really gonna pretend the name caller is as bad as the guy with the opinion that “critics are useless and should just learn how to do the thing the critique”? Cuz that’s a classic shitty opinion
Definitely silly but im tired of trying to explain something especially when they act like that and I know they arent going to listen. They can simply get name called. People dont like that but its simply not my obligation.
Nobody is gatekeeping. One of us is asserting that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
The features being requested do not come for free. Someone has to sink the time into doing the work.
So, in an argument between people doing the work and people insisting someone else do the work for them, but it must be to the specifications of the armchair quarterbacks… well… I’ve got bad news about the things the non-paying non-coders want.
You can either pay money or pay time, but nobody cares about the freeloaders demanding things without offering any kind of compensation.
It’s always interesting to see how people react to being told to put in their own effort instead of demanding the effort of others.
You have access to the code bases. You have access to the contributing rules. You can submit your patches to the same repos everyone else puts their code in. What exactly is being denied to you?
Thanks for admitting that you don’t actually care about the software. This was never about the software. This was only about your desire to control the actions of other people. Your previous comment already showed that when you chose to highlight my lack of interest in your opinion and not anything that actually matters.
You might want to consider spending less time on social media.
And now you’re lying.
Man. You really are going to tell me that’s what I said?
You’re being silly … that’s what I’m Saying. You can have an opinion all you want, you can stand by it, and you can defend it, but none of that makes you any less incorrect or insufferable.
.good day.

Okie dokie boomer
You’re both being silly. Ones a gatekeeper, ones a name caller
Want to know what’s wrong with Linux? The community.

Not pretending anything. Saying they’re both acting silly. Eos.
Have a nice day

Sounds like you dont actually want to work on FOSS software
" the day I start caring about what non-contributers think …"
Be sure not to wear your actual gate keeping opinion on Your sleeve if you want to deny them .
It’s always interesting to see how people react to being told to put in their own effort instead of demanding the effort of others.
You have access to the code bases. You have access to the contributing rules. You can submit your patches to the same repos everyone else puts their code in. What exactly is being denied to you?
Honestly kid. I’m done with this. You know the answer to that. I’m done with this. You’re all just too exhausting.
And again that is a Linux issue. Because no one wants to be thought of as insufferable as it appears Linux contributes are.
If one doesn’t want valid critique, one should take their software private and leave everyone alone.
Otherwise anyone can make all the critiques they want. Don’t like it? Don’t do things in public. Make the software privately and alone
