      It’s a little crazy to me how the most popular tech youtuber struggles so much with Linux, meanwhile fucking PewDiePie, who’s not known for being particularly bright, has been making videos about Linux and selfhosting and how fun it is to configure his system lol.

        The hardest person to convert is a Windows “poweruser”. They have an unfounded confidence in their ability to do things. They think because they know Windows well they should be immediate pros at other OSes as well.

          If you mess up and then fix it/start over and get it right the second time around, did you mess up?

            Yes, most people dont see their operating system as a Jenga tower to be knocked down and built up again.

        You are giving him to much credit of you think he’s just pretending to break things.
