The chaotic urge to tell Linux evangelists to "Just install Windows" when they post even the smallest gripe about Linux...

@bortzmeyer @catsaladBecause it's a reaction to them replying "just install Linux" when someone posts the smallest gripe about Windows

@bortzmeyer @catsalad I have to use all three OSes every day for work. I love and hate them all in equal measure. Got no time for religious affiliation.

@bortzmeyer @catsalad No, first you say:Don't run a messy system assembled from a bunch of different sources, install FreeBSD, it's much more coherent.Then you say:Don't use a system designed for big servers on your personal machine, install OpenBSD, it's much simpler and easier to secure.Then you say:Don't use a system that's so paranoid in its security, install NetBSD, it's easier to configure.And then you say:Don't run a server OS for your desktop, install Haiku.Bonus points if you make them install IllumOS in the middle.

@plaetzchen @catsalad And then to complete the encirclement, a Linux user that goes "Oh, you have a problem? Well, PRs welcome. You really need to be a better FOSS citizen."

@mandelhorn @plaetzchen @catsalad Sending patches upstream is such a hassle.Just keep your own downstream patches.It's called free software, damnit, that means you're free to fix a bug when you see it, and use your fixed version forever, and nobody can stop you.
