You must be confused. No one wants the actual answers in this community. They simply take scenarios a beginner might experience before doing any research at all and type them in-front of poorly compressed cartoon images. No thought or humor involved. Since everything is new and users are desperate for content, it gets votes no matter the quality.
I've had Linux problems before too when I was still trying to use it and I'd post the issues on like 4-5 different active forums and never get anything to solve it. So posting a meme acting like something is impossible seems like an amazing way to get instant help from the Linux knights.
and btw, the i never though about monting using systemd, no i came for the memes, and learned something
Linux user here, this would have been super helpful to me in the past. I don't think it's that the world is full of master Linux users that don't post, it's that new people need more help and have more questions.
Fwiw, as someone also recently new to Linux, I thought this captured part of the experience brilliantly, and without malice.
Of course op probably went on to google (and find) the answer, so I agree with you that getting the answer with this post was probably not the point. But it’s a quality shitpost, and I endorse it! 😀
