A friend of mine was an arch user and was constantly throwing shit at me for using zorin os, but at the same time was always complaining about something not working like he wants it to and spending too much time tinkering. He recently switched to Fedora.

Who's laughing now Tom

I've been a tech for 25 years, a steeped nerd even longer. I've met many many linux users. Three of them weren't obnoxious distro adherents. (Four if you count myself)

Experience tells me otherwise, but given that the people I've met that use linux distros is nowhere near enough of a good sample size, I hope I'm wrong.
