You don’t think some people who consider trying linux make a web search or ask a question somewhere only to get turned off by people immediately arguing about distros and calling them brain damaged?
Right now it’s ubuntu that’s the meme target, but there’s always something like this. If everyone stopped using ubuntu tomorrow, the people who somehow get their self esteem from having a better distro will find something else to fuel that. They will never be happy
I’m happy if people use linux. I’m even happy if they use WSL or homebrew rather than plain windows or os x as it’s a gateway drug, even though having windows in particular as a base system seems needlessly painful
people continue to use Windows because it’s already installed.
That’s not the only reason, and it’s not the biggest reason. People pay $200 to get windows on a new computer because they’re never been exposed to anything else.
people continue to use Ubuntu because they have brain damage
This comment says a lot about your opinion, especially why no one cares about it.
Why not use a free distro
people continue to use ___________ because it’s already installed.
Let them use whatever in the hell they want. It gets them exposure that there’s life without Windows/Mac. You can hate ubuntu without gatekeeping people.

See, this is the type of uselessly disparaging dialogue that people take issue with. Why on earth did you think that this is an OK thing to say?
