I've been using Linux for a very long time and nothing of the sort has ever happened to me.
I genuinely have a hard time believing you can both have been “using Linux for a very long time” and never had to fix an issue lol. If you’ve legitimately been using it for that long, you’re also probably the type to RTFM, so I probably wasn’t talking about you…
I've had to fix many issues but I've never had anyone be an ass about it. I've received plenty of friendly, helpful advice.
If what you didn’t see were examples of gatekeeping, read this very thread lol. But again, rather anecdotal. Spend some time talking to anyone trying the OS now and see their experience. Read threads made by newbies.
