I don’t think this is rage-baiting, it’s an opinion being asked of something that a lot of people on the fediverse apparently, can’t handle criticism on their favorite thing. But it’s okay for them to constantly dog on anyone who uses windows or apple. Fair, right? /s
Anyways, there’s numerous things I don’t like about Linux.
-
Distro Hell. Linux’s strength is also its weakness. There’s a distro for anyone for any purpose. However, there’s also division among distros and the overwhelming amount of choice as to which one will fit your needs. Some will leave you high and dry, others will help you, some with poor documentation, some you have to google things for .etc I mean, it’s a pick your poison kind of deal.
-
The Entitled Community - As I lightly referenced, Linux snobs are as insufferable as your Apple fanboy and your Windows apologist. I mean, Ubuntu marketed itself as “an operating system for humans”. If that isn’t huffing your own farts to get a high, I don’t know what is.

Still can’t run everything from Windows, not without Wine or other methods. We’ve got gaming down to a tee for Linux and some strong candidates for alternatives in open source software from the main closed-source software. But, yeesh, we are still far and away from being able to comfortably use what we use in Windows to Linux.
-
Terminal Hell. I used to have said a lot in the past that if you can’t distinguish a repository from a depository in the realm of Linux, then you don’t have a good chance. You’re going to do an awful lot from the terminal from updating to moving files to all sorts of things. This is the part where people who use Linux feel like a tech god of sorts because of how many things they can do from the terminal. It’s about as impressive as cracking Windows.








Irrelevant. And stupid.
