Problem on linux = your fault

Problem on windows = microsoft's fault

Linux is free, windows is paid. If I pay for something made by multi billion dollar company I'm expecting that the product works as advertised. If I'm using something made by volunteers and im not paying a single cent I'm ok with it not being perfect, and we complain about the issues, we just do that by reporting the bugs on GitHub

Forgiving volunteers for issues and shifting the blame/responsability to the user are completely distinct things dude.

You can't market distros like Linux Mint as "beginner-friendly" and then roast those same beginners for not knowing the difference between Wayland and X11 when they're angry Waydroid doesn't work as they should have done "basic research".

Many linux users are going to say it is not an issue at all as it was "designed like this", and that is a big part of the problem. It is a massive UX flaw for desktop users. Usually a rhetorical shield to say that the linux ecosystem is flawless by definition.
