    Unfortunately asking people to learn anything makes you look like an asshole. If you make someone think when they don't want to? Asshole.

    Unsolicited advice is asshole-behavior, like it or not.

    It's not unsolicited though, the thread OP is referring to was complaining about people suggesting Linux in response to complaints about Windows.

    If someone hasn’t asked “what can I use instead of Windows?” then “use Linux” is unsolicited advice. If you absolutely can’t stop yourself from suggesting Linux every time someone wants to complain about using Windows—something they might not even have a choice in, if their job requires it—at least suggest something useful for their Windows problem. Some jackass rolling by when you have a flat tire and saying “you should have taken the bus” isn’t offering helpful information, they’re being an asshole.

    This meme isn't asking people to learn anything, it's just shitting on windows users.

    I think it's shitting on windows users who complain constantly about windows but are unwilling to learn anything else.

    It's not like Linux is 1:1 compatible with everything on windows. Maybe you play a game with kernel anticheat, you don't have a choice in the matter. There's no reason to just be a dick about it.

    Who's holding a gun to your head and forcing you to play games with anticheat?!

    There's every reason to "be a dick" (your words, not mine) to lying assholes who claim in bad faith that they have no choice when they obviously do.
