It feels like a lot of people in these threads form their opinions of what desktop Linux is like these days based on one poor experience from back in 2005.
This an Apple zealot thread. They aren’t reasonable or actually interested in computing outside of Apple. They will talk shit about Linux all day in this thread or any other one but if you criticize Apple it’s to the guillotine for your comment. I’m surprised yours is still standing.
