Techbros can fuck off 

The reason why we hate techbros when they keep insisting we install Linux is that they do not understand why Linux as a thing is important. It's not a tool for ego masturbation, it's a statement against corporations controlling OS platforms.

The sad consequence of this is there are going to be vital apps that simply cannot be ported over to Linux, due to proprietary dll usages and how certain CPU instructions can only be accessed via Windows/Mac.

And most of us don't have the spoons to deal with finding an alternative to everything we use, or figure out how to magically pull open source software out of our asses on demand.
