Why are distro communities turning linux more and more into Windows and Mac OS clones?

This is why I use Arch.

    Oh, you can vote whether it should be opt-in or opt-out.
    Oh, voting requires “Trust level 1”.

    Anyway, I may stop donating to Manjaro due to this. Now I just go with Arch anyway. archinstall even makes it quick to setup a VM.

      I’ve found that some people use Linux just to be apart of the “cool tech kids” on the internet. They don’t understand how to use a CLI, what kernel level access is, what a kernel is, or even how Linux actually works as opposed to Windows/Mac.

      I think Manjaro was made for them. It’s like the MLM version of a Linux distro.

        This is a “cool tech kid” opinion. Linux is for EVERYONE. Let’s not gatekeep it. Having GUI tools and stuff that is so easy to use that tech-illiterate people can use Linux is a great thing.
