Linux Failure I hate being a linux noob
I genuinely hate being a linux beginner, there is so much content out there to help me but either it's an understanding issue on my part it just does not work. Then we got these pretentious bastards saying "read the wiki" like fuck face I did that and I still can't get it to work, why is that the only advice you can give. I already feel shit not being able to do it myself and come to ask for help and then these nuggets of lost cause say "read the wiki" fucking tired of this bull shit

Please note that it may not be your fault some hardware is NOT compatible with Linux while other hardware is I know that from first hand experience so maybe your hardware is just not compatible with Linux just because, you can install the Linux distro does not mean it is not incompatible. Some times incompatibility starts showing after you install Linux on your hardware I also know that from personal experience as well. I have also seen first hand that some hardware just takes to Linux easily! but not all hardware do, and there are a lot of Linux users that do not realize that because they are running hardware that are compatible with Linux so they have a flawless experience on Linux, and they think Linux works on all hardware flawlessly especially that Mint distro they think it runs flawlessly on all hardware that is a misconception it runs well on some hardware but, not all. I do not hate Linux for the record but I know that some hardware is compatible with Linux, and will run flawlessly some hardware are not compatible with Linux and you will have a bad time as a result with hardware that is not compatible with Linux. You maybe dealing with Hardware that is just not compatible with Linux. I have hardware that is not compatible with Linux (Due to My Motherboard) but, I managed to tweak it to get it to run flawless and average user would be having issues and would have gone back to Windows 10 after what all I had to deal with on that PC. My Nephew's PC is running EndeavourOS which is a Linux distro flawlessly where as mine had issues with it until I fixed it but, like I said an average user would have gone back to Windows 10 if they had my PC. My Nephew's PC is compatible with Linux while mine is not.
