      I’m not trying to push people to Linux. However it kills me to see people struggle and then not ask for help

      Libre software was a movement founded on collaboration and a sense of urgency. Sure you may have not have had the success you wanted, but the reality is that there is no safe, sustainable alternative to it.

      Also I reject your usage of the word “Tech support.” You’re teaching people how to use an operating system (and more importantly a philosophy) they’ve never experienced before. People are driven away from GNU every day by cheap expensive technology that preys on their vulnerability, you likely never made a dent by telling people about it.
