Bro moving from hungary where tech literacy is low compared to the rest of europe but when people are tech literate they actually know something to sweden where people are absolute tech bros is so painful. I had quite a few friends in hungary who used linux daily, a majority of them not even that deep into it, while here most people dont even know it exists. Every time i open my laptop someone has to fucking point out that "lol you use linux are you a hacker" which gets fucking annoying after a while.

tech literacy ≠ how much a country uses Linux.

Yeah but isnt just tech literacy, its what you can do with it. You are literate if you can read dailymail but its a much higher literacy level if you can reed shakespear. And with this analogy for some reason hungary has very few people who can read compared to most western countries but has a much larger percentage of people who read shakespear. Idk what the cause is tho.
