    It just pisses me off that people told me for years to switch to Linux and when I finally did, it wasn’t good enough for a lot of them because I wasn’t using the right flavor of Linux in their view.

    But yeah, Mint is fine for my needs- a web browser and a handful of applications- and I’m going to stick with it.

      I can relate. if you let people tell you what you should do, you will never feel satisfied because there is no consensus. People are addicted to pointing out negatives and telling others what they should be doing. I am an arch user because of imagined people telling me I should.

      I realize now I that this has impacted my life in many ways. I am working to uncover the difference between what I want, and what I think i should do because of what my brain thinks people expect of me.
