    This makes you sound like a Jehova’s witness.

    The main problem is that linux people are politically linux people, their morals and identity are strongly attached to their OS choice, and they have no social skills.

    You can advocate for linux to windows people all you like, you just can’t be annoying. A lot of linux people are really fucking annoying.

      Idk if that’s a valid comparison… being a Jehovah’s witness doesn’t save you a penny in software licensing costs

        They’re just saying it sounds like them, not that it’s the same thing. They believe they’re saving your soul.

        The comparison is the door-to-door evangelism, i.e., it’s really easy to tell that that phrasing has an ulterior motive. Kinda like how “Netflix and chill” does not mean “let’s watch Netflix.”
