And Linux isn't minimal effort. It's an operating system that demands more of you than does the commercial offerings from Microsoft and Apple. Thus, it serves as a dojo for understanding computers better. With a sensei who keeps demanding you figure problems out on your own in order to learn and level up.

...

That's why I'd love to see more developers take another look at Linux. Such that they may develop better proficiency in the basic katas of the internet. Such that they aren't scared to connect a computer to the internet without the cover of a cloud.

So here is one of the pages I read... https://linux-gaming.kwindu.eu/index.php?title=Should_you_switch_to_Linux_gaming%3F I saw similar sentiment in other places as well. Sounds like you are saying this isn't the majority opinion?

Overall, I have a strong dislike for apple in general, and I won't take a job where I have to work with windows ever again unless I am desperate. And I am also getting very tired of Microsoft's bs. But I don't want my main home pc to be a project either. I already use Firefox and a vpn. But every time some page doesn't work right I have to turn off the vpn, and try chrome before I know the problem is on thier end. And it usually isn't, well other than not supporting firefox and a vpn, but these are banks or doctors offices, I don't have a lot of choice in most of them. There is only so much of that I am willing to do on my main home pc. But overall, I would like to be part of the solution, as long as I am a target user, which from what I have read, I am not.
