Yeah, it’s a sad state of affairs. Forums were good at some point. But nowadays it feels like only the most socially deranged, basement dwelling, self righteous asshats are still on there. And this is especially true for anything related to linux.
Sure, you may get a usable answer somewhere down the line. But the amount of verbal abuse, “Uhm actshually” and “why don’t you do completely unrelated thing” you get is unbearable.








Honestly, the arch linux forums are one of the worst offenders in my experience. Most of my “you should have learned that during the installation”, “why do you even use X? Y is way better and does something completely different” and worst of all “Of course it doesn’t work. Manjaro is just DDOS” encounters stem from there. But XDA is a pretty ok place.
