So this is why he doesn't do Linux... any more

LTT is hidden advertising, and there is no money for that in Linux.

Even though I don't really dabble in Linux anymore. I lost all my respect for him. No, not due to this post, but the GN/Billet Labs situation, and especially the Madison situation.

Fuck Linus and his shitty company. Greedy cunt.

What was the context for this? Was he just explaining why he wasn't going to talk about how to install Linux during a video or something?

We also know how to install Windows. Make him install openBSD

I think revisiting Linux would be great idea, but the current state isn’t that far off from what he experienced few years ago. Wayland protocols aren’t fully there yet, NVIDIA still needs some work, portals, desktops, 3rd party software and hardware support, package formats bullshit… There’s shit load of pending changes still being discussed, progress is being made, and even then, adoption of new solutions will take a while. It only make sense to revisit when there’s huge technological leap. Realistically with how slow things are going sometimes, it may be the end of the decade or close before the landscape looks really different.

People hating on linus but I'd say he's honestly done videos to help linux be in the light. Like it or not linux still has its pain points. More importantly if you want linux to have wide adoption then you'll need for manufacturers to ship them on devices and have them in store.

He actually doesn't know how to install Linux. Or anything about it in fact. In fact, he knows frightening little about the tech he talks about.

There's more to Linux than merely installing it though.

Worst Linus.

tbh before i really cared about tech stuff i thought it was linux tech tips lmao

I can make it work, but I don't have a clear idea of what I'm doing especially with the partitions. I`m still too used to thinking in drive letters.

There was a time when you could learn something by watching his channel. But I unsubbed when every other episode was about his wife, his house, or some personal shit about his employees. Get the fuck out with that parasocial shit.

Never been in to the Linus stuff beyond specific videos related to a general search

I don't use an OS for some identity or hype reason, they're just tools that allow me to do what I actually want to do with computers. Server and laptop are Debian and my power desktop is Windows.

"Any more" this mofo couldnt do it even when he is getting paid to

Linus is just a windows fanboy, just like i am a linux fanboy

But I forgot how

I hope Steve from Gamers Nexus doesn't turn into someone like Linus

The problem with the linux crowd is that it's basically about something that should be transparent in your day to day life, the OS. Only Microsoft deals in adsolutes.

Ah right you are! Step 1: open we browser to https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/download.html Step 2: insert a Knoppix cd to start my build Step 3: ???????? Step 4: Profit!!!!

What video is this quoted from?

Wasn't he named after the operating system?

I think he's mentioned multiple times that he just doesn't like using Linux, right?

There is always butthurt about him. He's a normal user and folks can't cope that Linux desktop is a mess for the average user.

XXXX year of the Linux desktop.

Linux is fantastic for running shit. It's pretty terrible for most normal users to use.
