In my experience, Linux folks are just happy to find each other in the wild.

Hell, I'm just happy to meet people that are Linux-curious lol.

It's mostly online that the distro wars are fought.

I've never met a linux enthusiast or even a user IRL. So at this point if I ever do, they will achieve best friend status off of that alone.

So strange that an operating system has that affect on me

You never knowingly met a Linux user. Statistically speaking, you probably have.

The issue is that OS-preference is not very common as a small talk topic. This is why you should name drop your fav distro in every conversation.

I have "rm -rf /" tattooed on my left arm. I'm hoping one day I hear someone say "Hey you forgot --no-presrve-root or /*".

Met one guy (my therapist weirdly enough) that knew it was a *nix command. That was pretty cool.

I've slowly been decorating my IT office with various Linux trinkets.

I just got a foam stress "ball" Tux recently, and I plan on getting a Debian coffee mug, maybe some Linux/FOSS related stickers lol.
