A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Because the average person doesn't have time to figure it out and make things work. Linux isn't the solution for everything. Linux users have become the vegans of the internet.......
Someone who has reached the point of abandoning all computer technology entirely would probably be willing to make the effort of installing a friendly Linux build. It's not as complicated as people think.
Someone who’s at the point of abandoning all computers entirely has exactly zero patience for learning linux.
Right, having no computers in your life at all is easier than installing Linux...
Because fixing every flaw of Windows with the registry editor is so much easier. Also why all the people I help due to their broken Windows don’t seem happy about it?
