If you think so and that this is important, maybe you could be the one that makes it happen. Start a project and gather like-minded people. That is how Linux, FOSS and community driven efforts operate. It's useless to complain that nobody else makes the effort if you have the capabilities but can't be arsed making an attempt yourself.

There is no authority delegating responsibilities of writing tutorials for Linux. It is the responsibility of nobody and everybody. If you can't find one for your problem, write it yourself when you have figured it out.

For every change there is an angry Linux user. Even when it is easily disabled and never a problem again.

On the flip side - how often do you install new programs so this becomes an annoyance in the first place?

I install something new maybe once a month or less for desktop use. I have not even noticed this blip.

Somewhat more often in and for terminal use.

  1. Your dad cheated on your mum, not on you.

  2. Everything involving humans is more complex and complicated than it might seem at first glance.

  3. Everybody makes mistakes, even your loved ones.

  4. You only have one dad, so it's better to forgive them. (I didn't forgive mine for other mistakes, and that was my mistake. Now I'm old and he is dead and that's that.)

  5. Your mum is being selfish and manipulative because she is afraid and hurting. It's not right what she is doing, but see the points above for her as well.

  6. Life is hard and unfair and difficult for everybody. For your dad, for your mum and also for you. It sucks when you're stuck in the middle of other people's problems, but remember all of this will pass. And remember to take care of yourself.

Hugs my dude. You'll get through this and so will they.

Edit: 7. Time. Let things take time. Don't rush what you feel or what you should feel. Don't go overthinking everything. Things that are complicated need time to settle.

This is also the rationale to people defending Nazis because "it's just their opinions".

No, it is not "just opinions" when you want to terrorise and murder other people simply for having been born. It is not "just opinions" that you want to abolish democracy for a totalitarian police state. It is not "just opinions" that you manifest that you are working towards this society. It is not "just opinions" that you express this in public in order to make other people live in fear for your "opinions" to become reality.

It is violence. And violent aggression is justified to be met with violent defence.

Punch a nazi today, kids. Every day is punch a nazi day.

Edit: Sorry, I went wild and somewhat unrelated. I didn't intend to diminish the topic of womens rights. Every day is of course also a punch a sexist day, regardless their other opinions.

When despite the isolation and difficulties and people being terribly ill and dying, there was this feeling of something good might come out of this great reset of society?

That feels very distant now.

Itt people angrily downvoting and building head canon of me of why I don't find them clever for pointing out the obvious.

A proper unpopular opinion!

I knew an Italian exchange student that kept whining that nothing tasted good and nothing tasted as it should up here in Scandinavia. Then another exchange student (from Thailand I think) got tired of him and told him ~"the rest of the world isn't your mother" and it was a literal moment of realisation for this dude.

This dude manages to make his declarative nazi salute at the presidential inauguration and the world is watching look like he is a ten year old trying his best to be edgy in school assembly. How is it possible to be a central character in the midst of evil and be so fucking cringe?

Performing sufficiently for cheap production cost, they'd be a low RISC high reward investment.
