    As somebody who voted against Obama twice people like you are the ones who got through to me.

    Nobody made some amazing argument that just flipped my world. There wasn’t some big revelation. I wasn’t embarrassed or dunked on so thoroughly that I snapped out of it or whatever. After a few years of just being around smart, decent people who preached empathy and brought my attention to what marginalized groups deal with every day, I just slowly became more and more progressive until one day I looked around and realized how much I changed. When I said something ignorant or just generally spoke with confidence on a subject I simply did not understand (which as someone of [you can guess the demographic] was very very common!) they corrected me and moved on. No big fight, but they certainly didn’t let it slide.

    I have a lot of growing up to do make no mistake. But I am definitely not where I was 15 years ago. The older I get, the more left I find myself becoming lol

    I don’t want a replacement for windows and steam OS is about as intuitive as Linux gets. If it’s too complicated for someone they probably shouldn’t be using Linux.

    Some of us legitimately want to build a gaming PC around steamOS. Stop telling us what we do or don’t want. Stop treating people like they’re tech illiterate because they’re not doing what you would do. I have 3 different distros on 3 different machines running right now - I know what I want and i know what steamOS can/can’t do. You do you.

    SteamOS even now is a decently capable desktop OS. If you want more than gaming as the central focus then sure look elsewhere. But you’re just being obnoxious and condescending about it.
