As an arch user and a German heavy main, this actually feels fair. Both are capable machines but neither are going to maintain themselves, both come with an entire manual you're expected to read, and nobody will be sympathetic to you if you don't know the basics of what you're doing (rotate the steel box for fucks sake).
Now comparing the StuG to Manjaro, that hurts.
For the people in the back
As far as I know, Ubuntu is unique in its insistence on snaps. I can't really speak for any others but my system runs fine entirely on native or locally compiled packages known to my package manager.
I wish great man theory would just die.
From the point of web infrastructure and standards, they certainly do.
People feel the same way about cars, electricity, food preservation. People's lives are interdependent on massively specialized technical disciplines and most of them couldn't care less. I understand that the amount of specialization that goes into some topics means you can't be an expert on all of these subjects, but some people just could not give a single shit how any of it works, and do not have any understanding of the ways in which it might stop working.
I've come to greatly resent any sort of technology or design being dismissed as "magic", because I've met too many people who mean it literally.
My gut reaction is that a multimedia website the size of reddit must be a juggernaut of server and hosting expenses.
They hated him because he spoke the truth
Kind of shocked this logic isn't obvious. Red lights on cars in low-light conditions already have a very specific, very important meaning.
I’m going to make the switch to Linux
one of us
Seriously, though, it's easier than ever.
When RIF finally stopped working for me, it was giving error 429, which is Too Many Requests. I expect you're getting lucky with whatever rate limiting scheme was implemented on reddit's server side.
You clearly don't have much experience with the full bell curve of people's ability with computers.
