They're just pzombies. Herd animals.bundles of reaction and reflex without consciousness.
We all start out that way. Not everyone is fortunate enough to grow in an environment that grants them access to education and insights into how tech works.
If you start thinking of others as lesser just because they’re less/uneducated about something then know that someone could be thinking the same of you.
As someone who has been offering those insights for longer than many people have been alive: they call you a nerd hate you for trying to make their lives harder and tell you to fuck off, because mastodon takes five seconds and one decision more to register for than Twitter.
Then ten/fifteen/twenty years later when they panic because you were right about everything, they blame you for Facebook being evil because you knew about it. Despite being the one person they know without a Facebook account.
You're making up someone to be mad at, who yells at people for using a GUI and shouts "nooooob!" Without irony. That person sounds unpleasant, and I would like an apology for the assumption that I'm them.
Just gotta put this into context:
Sounds like condescending narcissist POC speak to me. No apologies.
Yeah I guess I should just switch to windows. Continue this conversation on discord?
Joke’s on you bud. I use NixOS.
Curiously enough, home-manager supports Discord.
