I honestly won the last 2 job selections because I was "the linux guy": my emplyers understood that I can operate a pc better that the average mac or windows user and chose me over other people for that reason.
So what your saying it doesn't apply to all use cases

Honestly it might not be the best idea to let employers know you’re willing to put in extra hours and hours of work just to get something trivial like audio working because that makes you look like an exploitable mark

Being a linux user doesn't mean I'll put in more hours at work, it just means that in the same amount of time I'll have more stuff done, or that it takes less time to learn new stuff because I already know how some things work.

But hold fast to those values and ride them into the ground because of a decision you made 15 years ago and because you think Steve Jobs was gay

I don't have any particular idea (good or bad) about the character of SJ, except for the fact that I think he was an excellent salesman. And the characteristic of an excellent salesman is to lure you into a bad deal by convincing you that you'll end up on the upper side.

Audio on Linux has worked out of the box for over a decade.
