I feel like I’ve been gaslit into running FOSS but every success only brings me closer to fighting god

    Even when they get a new user on Linux, they still then scrutinise their choice of distribution, if not that then their IDE. There’s no winning and it’s off-putting for people considering the jump.

      I was simply offering a suggestion. The original poster used the term ‘FOSS’ to describe Ubuntu GNU/Linux, which isn’t entirely accurate, as Ubuntu includes non-free software by default.

      My intention was to ensure they were informed about it. The whole point of GNU/Linux is to make sure that every computer user has freedom. If you think sharing information and teaching people is bad, maybe you’re using the wrong operating system.
