You get a huge backlash if you advice Windows to a Linux user.

But somehow this is supposed to be funny?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Its funny because a lot of people do this even though its completely unhelpful in solving their problem.

To be fair, Windows' support is also unhelpful in solving their problem.

It's the "just Google it" response

Ah, the funny part is the cringe, I see.

I encountered it tons before, like people suggesting Chrome when the only browser that was supported was IE back in the day.

the irony is the "just use another distro" advices

To be fair, using Linux is (usually) much more of an active decision.
