I see a lot of the "even once you pick a Linux distro you get yelled at for using the wrong one" and like I just haven't seen that here?

Lemmy is by far the chilliest place of Linux users I've ever fucking seen. Even when I posted an issue on the Linux mint forum I got fucking told "well you used XFCE, there's your issue" despite it being the better choice for that system

We absolutely will pressure people to try it, because we're a cult. Meetings on Thursdays at 9PM for my local chapter

Just wait till you say you're using Ubuntu. ^^;

Ok, even I have a cringe reaction to that by default

Even then though I've only really seen people go "you should try mint instead, basically that but without the proprietary stuff"

Think I did see ONE guy weirdly assholish about it but haven't seen em in a while

Ubuntu isn't such a bad choice if you want to quickly spin up a server.
