I was eating some chocolate when I imagined a world where Hershey’s was widely accepted, even by elitists, as the best chocolate.

Is consumer elitism just a facade for pretentious contrarians? Or are there things where even most snobs agree with the masses?

Also, I mean that the product is intrinsically considered to be the best option. I’m not considering social products where the user network makes the experience.

    Can you honestly say that you didn’t come to this thread looking for this fight?

    I dual boot Kubuntu and Windows Enterprise LTSC for the best of both worlds, at the price of a little bit of redundant storage. There’s pros and cons to both. I think being able to recognize that is all the other user was initially saying, rather than pretending like they’re not there.

    It’s also why I feel like the answer isn’t in the spirit of the question: each of the major OSes hit a different type of user, and you just admitted that the snobs and elitists mostly exist on the Linux side (and Mac), which is true.
