Your original comment is equally as asinine, bud.

You literally suggested Linux has not grown because of the community, as if to say every single day thousands of Windows users are booting up their first distros only to be chased away by a toxic community. The only thing holding it back from a boom in users is, what, discord channels?

Because most people actually want to learn from people not a 10,000 word man page written by a robot

So...users don't want to read, and that's somehow the Linux community's fault? Nevermind the fact there's plenty of very simple and short video guides to help with this.

Look, I'm not going to convince you of anything, you've got your mind made up, so whatever. But you're really reaching here to make a point without any actual evidence. At least have the decency to make some bullshit up like "I've spoken with a lot of people that say" or something.
