The unsympathetic/pedantic users and obtuse man pages are why I've abandoned Linux attempts in the past. The reason I am trying to move to Linux now, isn't because those were fixed. It's because windows is becoming the more annoying option. I've prevented my computer from updating win 10 until I can leave the platform. But I'm not looking forward to dealing with Linux frustrations. Especially the fucking users. I hate asking Linux people for help. 95% chance I just get a pedantic dickwad.
I think things are getting better. I'm not going to lie and tell you that it's no longer a problem, but I think you can do a lot more with a little patience. I know there's a lot of different implementations, so you might need to experiment as well. Good luck!
