i get a little annoyed at posts that start with broad statements like “is linux actually ready for the average user?” but then it’s just someone asking for help to fix a problem they have with their sources.list or whatever. it’s not a massive problem, but it’s misleading and it feels borderline inflammatory sometimes
please tell when you’re asking for help

Linux feels so mainstream to me now. Some days I’m temped to switch to OpenBSD or something ;)
Sometimes I think about doing this, but then I remember that Linux is not my hobby these days, it’s my productivity platform.
I understand! For most of my career its been the same for me.
The “big” switch I’m currently contemplating at the moment is moving to FreeBSD on my home file server.
I do sometimes consider switching my workstation to OpenBSD when I get nostalgic for the early struggle days of linux. Like when you had to be really careful with hardware selection and what not.
But then I remember I had a lot more free time in those days!
