It’s not about snarkiness, I was just rubbed the wrong way by your “os is not everyday user friendly”, which you said because you did something that most everyday users don’t do, and which doesn’t usually happens even if they do.
I am easily triggered by stuff like that because this was the mantra for so many years, and despite not being true for more than a decade, still a very big hurdle in the way of Linux adoption. So, so, so many people would like to try switching to Linux but don’t even try because they heard from someone on the Internet that you need to compile drivers all the time, and since they can’t do that, they believe that Linux isn’t for them
I run Debian on it to keep a dedicated section of my hard drive for a web server I run to test things on
Sorry if I came across as snarky I was just salty at Linux yesterday

Ok I’ll make an edit. I see your view
Thank you! Sorry if I was sound harsh, wasn’t my intention
Corrections always come across as harsh haha. I don’t think you were out of line at all and I appreciate the concern for the community.
Nah you’re good. I meant the others were being snarky.
