    Gotta love these videos… they can be summarized as follows:

    “I hate Windows so I will try Linux with no prep… Linux is not identical to Windows in x, y, z and therefore Linux is still deficient… Looks like I cannot do everything I could think of without reading a single line of documentation, conclusion, LiNUx iS nOT ReADy!”

        I did… he tosses out a ton of misinformation about how hard Linux is. The fact he decided to “stay and endure the hardship” doesn’t mean the message he is pushing is sadly misinformed

          “linux is hard” is a subjective opinion and he is entitled to it. it does not make it misinformation. he is free to express his frustrations at the learning curve, just like any learning curve in any other software.

            I agree, but there is a big difference in saying “I don’t know what to do, I need to learn this new thing” vs “there is a scary part to Linux and there is no way around it”

            Saying “driving manual is hard” is fine, saying “you need to learn to shift gears without a clutch to drive” is wrong and would scare potential drivers

      However, this guy has actually switched to Linux, and is willing to adapt and learn how to use it.

        Sure. And hopefully he can post a follow up video where he correct the misinformation on this first one
