It's to be expected as Linux is more niche on the desktop and so Linux people (like me) tend to be either enthusiasts or have some expertise with different systems. A similar example would be that you can see more pilots helping people fix their cars than you see a driver helping to fix a plane (despite there being more planes stuck on the ground than there are cars stuck in the sky).
- flanked-evergl 3y agoTo be clear, I'm talking about software engineers, which is where the analogy then breaks down because this it would be closer to Toyota engineers helping Ford engineers. I don't expect someone who is an accountant to know as much as a software engineer, but if a software engineer tells me they prefer Windows to Linux, but they can't use Windows, then I suspect their problem is not caused by any aspect of their operating system.
