    Uhh, he promotes Linux at every step? You are free to dislike him and his content, but he’s absolutely a force for Linux adoption.

      From what I remember it went like this, but I stopped following his crap years ago

      • sees an error message, doesn’t read it
      • starts pasting random shit into the terminal
      • breaks the system
      • Fuck Linux, it’s not ready for use
      • after the Linux community has a meltdown, someone points out to him that he’s an idiot, but in a gentle way you’d tell your boss
      • tries again, gives up again
      • films another video on how windblows just works, while he, a certifiable tech genius, couldn’t get it to work

      Truly “a force for Linux adoption”.

      I very much so enjoyed their content where they attempted Linux only for 30 days straight. They documented their successes, struggles, and roadblocks. I think they did two different attempts, the first time they didn’t recommend it and the second time they did. I might be misremembering the first attempt.
