No, I’m in love with having my property rights respected instead of letting corporations sabotage my computer against me.
The real question is, why do non-Linux-users all insist on being simps and cucks and then have the gall to act like I’m the weird one?
It‘s basically the proverbial frog in the pot. Emphasis on the proverbial because frogs jump actually do leave the pot when it‘s too hot.
Unless they’re lobotomized, which makes it a good metaphor again.
Hear hear! It’s wild to see what Mac and Windows users put up with. The Linux experience may sometimes be cryptic and frustrating, but at least I know I’m not paying for the privilege of being shat on by a large corporation.

For real, installing Linux nowadays is pretty painless for the most part, windows has this 27 stage process for opting out of a online account.
Like both have issues, you’re just used to the windows issues, but those are progressively getting more intrusive.
Don’t compare Mac to Windows.
Ever.
It hit my eye as well, but I am sure there is a way to present it without being downvoted.
When everyone worship the corporations, the non-believers stand out.
They get dopamine hits when their

No.
Domroutine.
I used to only use Linux on old, outdated machines. They made it so that the computer was usable, but given the age it was still not a great experience. After Windows decided to bake ads into their OS, I installed Linux on my modern machine.
Everything is just faster. Windows/MacOS have so much overhead on every single action it’s actually crazy. Like, just typing on the keyboard is faster. Opening folders is faster. I thought folders opened instantly in Windows, but they don’t, it takes milliseconds more on Windows than Linux, and it’s noticeable. It feels like the folder opens before I get done with my double click.
I am a pretty basic computer user, outside of software development (something that is objectively better on Linux) I only use a web browser and play games on Steam. I have yet to run into something that isn’t a better experience on Linux than Windows.
I even noticed that Win11 is slower on more modern hardware. <_<
Yup! Boot time is the worst. My Windows 10 (dual boot) takes at least 5x longer to reach desktop, and then it’s still initializing all kinds of bs. Like networking takes at least 10-15s to work after I reach the desktop.
The installation is very clean as I only use it for two video games. They’re on the same NVMe SSD.
Typical Windows users greet me when I use Linux:
“Oh, you must be a hacker, right?”
