I’m not sure that I’m what anyone would call “experienced”. But I’ve used it for a long time. And people wetting their pants over one or another distribution seems like a total waste of time. they’re all very similar.
I’m very much not happy to be associated with the community depicted in meme - i sincerely hope most of them are just taking the piss out of themselves.
I think even if there were quadruple the user base it’s not going to materially change the number of developers making decent linux native programs. So you either use open source stuff. or webapps and wine stuff like that. Size of userbase is pretty irrelevant to me.
Distros are a matter of taste, and you shouldn‘t judge someone over it.
But a bit of friendly fun-poking is alright (e.g. „NixOS user spend all night configuring their PC“).
Insults directed directly at a person are never OK.
And there are of course distros that are objectively bad (like Ubuntu), and you can criticize their creators, and maybe try to convince the users to choose something else (that‘s where Mint is from, kind of), but you cannot. hate. on. them.
