I'm sorry, but "easily accessible information" doesn't equal wall of text. If we want Linux to become more popular with the general population we have to make more user friendly sites. Walls of text just manage to scare non hackers away.
- jorgecastillo 13y agoI hope nobody takes offense at what I am about to say. I don't care if Linux becomes more popular with the general population, as long as I can use Linux or any other Unix-like OS I am happy. Trying to convince people to use Linux is useless. Whenever there is an opportunity I tell people I use Linux, I express why I like Linux but I also make sure I talk about the downsides of Linux.
- gojomo 13y agoThere are plenty of good readers who aren't hackers, who will appreciate well-written, on-point "walls of text" – as long as such text is easy to find, matched to the reader's sophistication, well-organized, quick-loading, and readable on any screen. That's "easily accessible" enough, especially as a start!
- ekianjo 13y agoWikipedia is a large wall of text with some pictures here and there. Who complains about it? Everybody uses it.
