To add - I have a friend who uses Mac OS, despite gaming. And we've talked about why and I think it's cool, she's made a lot od great decisions with her PC. But if I bring up Linux, she gets defensive as if I am proselytozing her, and asking her to use Linux, or she insults Linux. I can tell her why I enjoy what I enjoy, and she will just go off on a rant about why it's bad.

People talking about that thing they're passionate about is one of the most attractive things ever. It's enamouring like nothing else, and it brings me so much joy to see someone doing it

I think the unfairness of her talking about her computer but me not being able to talk about mine is bullshit.
