GNOME and Ubuntu are not representative of "Linux culture".

  “Linux Culture” is also similarly full of these sorts of “no true Scotsman” arguments, as well as deferring blame to other projects, and “oh you just simply need to use [package] Instead”. These are all things that make Linux on the desktop inaccessible. The moment you start talking about weird cultural minutiae like this, the whole thing is already incredibly inaccessible in my eyes.

    “Computer Culture” is also similarly full of these sorts of “no true Scotsman” arguments, as well as deferring blame to other systems, and “oh you just simply need to use [operating system] Instead”. These are all things that make computing on the desktop inaccessible. The moment you start talking about weird cultural minutiae like this, the whole thing is already incredibly inaccessible in my eyes. Seems approximately equally true and arbitrary.

  "Linux culture" is whatever most Linux users use. I don't know about Gnome, but Ubuntu is certainly that.
