      Yeah I think that’s kinda the point. Fedora does a bunch of things in really specific ways that aren’t at all like Debian based distros or Mac or windows. Eg - Selinux. So you, initial experience is pretty poor if you don’t know a decent amount about what’s going on

      You can read about my experience with Fedora on my day 1 post if you’d like. Bottom line, there were a TON of issues with Nvidia compatibility, and VLC ran like garbage on it.

        I think I don’t need to reiterate the replies you got on that post and explain why it was downvoted.

          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.

            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.

            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.

              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.

                I’ll come back to this at the end.

                You came in here […]

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

                […] and started this saying it’s basically my fault I had a bad time with Fedora.

                It is/was.

                […] Your condescending and pretentious attitude has been noted, […]

                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.

                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.

                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.

                  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.
