      Oh fuck off with that.

      So much of the Linux community is so full of itself, declaring every damn year as the “year of the Linux desktop”, it never is, and never will be mainstream for the average person until the community actually gets rid of the surplus of horribly toxic users that feel they’re superior simply because they don’t use Windows. The users that immediately respond negatively to any simple help request and seem to go out of their way to attack new users. It only takes one of those users to send the average person back to what they know, abandoning Linux forever.

      Until they accept that nearly everything must work through a GUI with a terminal never being needed by the end user. As soon as the average person runs into an issue needing a terminal, they’ll just abandon it entirely and go back to the Windows system they already know, never to try it again.

      The average person doesn’t give a shit about the sort of thing in the article, because they’ll never run into it. They’re not the ones bypassing minimum requirements for this to get anywhere near affecting them.
