It is quite well known that the "Linux Community" can be very difficult to work with or get help from, and because of that the likes of "Gemini, ChatGPT" and others get more use by people moving to Linux because of the hostile attitude by a lot of the "Linux Community".

I have only posted in a couple of places asking for help/advise about some issues and some alternatives to Windows programmes and I have already had more negative interactions with people than good, with one person who completely ignored me saying "I have almost 0 experience and I am learning as I go", only to be told "Go back to Windows, you're too stupid for Linux" and that was just me asking about a simple thing like should I mount a network share in Nobara via the "My Places" function which seems to work in a similar way to Windows or should I do the whole FSTab thing.

Fair enough Damien, I have also noticed how elitist and unforgiving to ‘noobs’, some, not all, Linux communities can be. Every year is claimed to be ‘this time it really is the year of Linux on the desktop’, unfortunately some members of the Linux community seem to be doing their hardest to thwart this.
