I kinda feel like there's very little overlap between distro fans and distro developers. Probably because distro devs tend to know all the dirty secrets of their distro.

You go on Reddit or wherever and it's all "distro X is evil, use distro Y instead," "No, Y is terrible! Use Z!" And then you sit at a table with a SuSE developer, a Fedora developer and an Ubuntu developer and the conversation is all "so how are you guys dealing with this issue?" "Oh, I think we came up with a great solution, I'll share the patch set with you!" "Wonderful, thanks! By the way I opened up a merge request on your stuff because we figured out how to fix that namespaces issue."
