I feel bad for the people that get herded by shills.

Switching OS requires proper DD anyway. What's wrong with giving people ideas to start their journey?

Because you people don't actually care about helping others, just shilling what you personally like.

The shilling has ideological and logical underpinnings though...

Sure if you don't care about privacy, security and autonomy, this shilling is whatever.

But for anyone freedom enjoyer, it will resonate. That's target.

Do you expect fedi crowd to be shilling corporate parasite solutions?

If so, what's your logic and ideology for that?

And yet here you are on Lemmy, I assume out of your own volition and independent thought

Should all new Linux users get through 10 distros and years of trial and error, before settling for one they like the most?

Imagine you want to leave MS and windows behind and are greeted by comments of your caliber. Then please provide an alternative starting point, elaborate, be helpful.

This is just passive aggressive my dude.

🥱

Maybe when you're older you'll understand.

If you go through your entire life without getting it, then that's sad.

At this point I expect the latter to occur.

Keep your secrets sensei. You get no more attention from me. Happy gatekeeping, or trolling or whatever this supposed to be.

You get no more attention from me.

Thank god.
