Yep... Moving to Lemmy it's quite surprising how much of an echo chamber the Linux group has on here.
It's a good OS, but being honest Windows is likely better for almost everyone as it's a lot simpler to understand with good support. Don't have to worry about comparability as much or other things either.
It’s such an echo chamber that you’ve gotten a number of downvotes just for providing your perspective here
Honestly, I've noticed that really only select communities really ever moved from reddit to Lemmy and it's full of people who are sucking their own dick on superiority complex.
A lot of this stuff (Linux requiring command line and root knowledge and Lemmy needing multiple instances to shuffle through) is just absolutely going to keep people, that I struggle to explain a URL to, from using any of this stuff.
I get that they like the privacy and the control and all that of this but telling people to just get good and use this stuff is like a basketball star being confused when you say you struggle to get a point because you should just run up and dunk it. Missing some steps and skills.
