Imagine going to a pizzeria. You've heard great things about it, how tasty it is and how cheap it is. Now once you get in there, there are a ton of people who don't work there, but are telling you that the burger place down the road is bad because they are expensive and lack options. But everyone you know goes to this burger place. So you decide that a pizza is in order, but all these people are yelling and screaming about how their crust type is the best, and then you have people listing every single topping combination and the benefits of each, but nobody has a consensus on any of it. Only then will you realize that they are all waiting for their own pizza order. And once you actually get to the counter, there is no menu board and you are expected to just order a pizza. The voices of what is the better pizza are drowning out your thoughts on what you actually need, so you leave and get back in line for the same burger every other person is ordering. Maybe I can add cheese, but it's still the same cheese. That is what the Linux community is like.
