    I don't think it's a dis.Β  It's just what people usually recommend to people used to Windows, traditionally at least.Β  Because it's familiar and just works.Β

    Because it's becoming mainstream. And for some people, that means they have to dis on it to feel special.

    Use the OS/Distro that works for you. If Windows or MacOS hits the spot for you, use that. There are no wrong answers here.

    They don't dislike it, it just doesn't make them look edgy. And some people like to (which is fine BTW).

    I've started on Conectiva in the nineties, Debian, Ubuntu, and settled on Mint. I'll probably switch to LMDE if at all at this point.
