Not really, because Discord works just fine on linux. It's still the most braindead take i've ever heard. Because almost all mainstream distros come with an appstore pre-installed. Ubuntu/Mint, Manjaro, pop!os, bazzite,... You just open the software center, search for 'discord', 'steam', etc. click install, and that's it. Arguably even easier and safer than on Windows because it works like a smartphone (via an App Store) rather than requiring users to search the web and download .exe installers. Triggered by dependency issues? Avoid rolling release distributions and install some stable LTS -> solved. A beginner installing arch and complaining that it doesnt "just work" is like someone previously using apple products ordering a "build your own android smartphone" assembly kit containing the raw electrical components and no os pre installed. Then shitting on android because the iPhone just works. "I'm using arch, btw." for years now and rarely have any issues. But it's not (made) for beginners. What sucks here isn't linux, it's the user. Who didn't even bother asking chatgpt what distro is for them. Or which specific distro is not for them. Then complaining, not about their os but about linux as a whole. Almost has to be ragebait now that i think about it.
