I wish every time someone talked shit about operating systems they woke up having switched OS with their grandmother.

What are windows mainers doing in a linux community? Shoo, we don't want Edge or Bing or popup ads in our games.

Ehh, I'm not sure. In my experience, apple users are too tech illiterate to have any opinions on windows, not even incorrect ones.

I got haggled for being a macos user in college because, "pc was superior". Turns out, that the CompSci people that gave me shit about my Mac, didn't understand the difference between "PC" and "Windows'. My MacBook is still the best laptop I've ever owned. It literally survived having beer being pulled into it's fan, and it's battery turned into a balloon long ago... it still runs fine, almost a decade later (if I keep it plugged in). I was "tech illiterate" to people because I used a MacBook. But switching from windows to mac, got me comfortable with trying linux. It got me comfortable with being uncomfortable, because I was constantly trying to figure out how to "get this to work on macos"

I've met a lot of tech-illiterate people over the years... and they all gave me less shit about trying something different.

I don't use arch btw
