Linux has tons of perks! If you don't care, awesome! Have a nice day and enjoy whatever you want.

I don't see how this is a difficult concept for so many haha. Like yeah, you can like something and think it's a better way to do something, but I do LOADS of things the "wrong way". Who cares

That's why the Linux crowd here I describe as evangelical. I'm going to say that even the vegans aren't as annoyingly zealous.

It's just something that people are excited about. It's also mind-boggling how people complain so much about a product but refuse to replace it. Yeah, I get it how there's software that only runs on Windows; this is something that should be fixed. We shouldn't be stuck on a shitty OS with no other options due to required software. That's the thing about Linux, you can customize it to be whatever you want, whereas you're stuck with whatever Microsoft gives you with Windows. Just the idea that a single company has control over everything is wrong. I don't really care if Linux wins out in the end, I just want choice in what OS I can run. That's it.
