100 sats \ 0 replies \ @nerd2ninja OP 8 Apr \ on: *Reaction* Why New Linux Users Quit And Go Back To Windows NixOS
This video really is not complete without the reaction content because the explanation of "how to sell linux" is actually pretty great and distro tube completely misses that aspect. New linux users should understand that linux is different and not expect it to work like windows.
That doesn't mean that linux has bad UX. I can already see the heated reactions to that statement. However, remember that linux really is just the kernal "Which is why I've taken to calling it GNU + Linux" jk, but really we can say linux, but actually with a graphical installer, the right desktop environment the right graphical package installer it can be a pretty smooth desktop experience.
I've even seen a channel recommend new users don't use a desktop environment that has a start bar or looks like Mac. They recommend new users use a desktop environment that is completely UNFAMILIAR because they get the idea that they're in a new place and have the needed mindset switch to learn the new place.
