My takeaway from point 1 is to rephrase my advice as a complaint:
“Man, it sucks you have that problem with Windows. I’ve been struggling with a computer problem of my own actually. I’ve been getting really down down thinking about all the Windows users out there who just have no clue about how the power of Linux could change their lives for the better”
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.
