”Just use Google. It’s literally the top result!”

Oh boy, you ain’t gonna believe how I found this forum thread.

Don't worry guys it's fixed....

I mean a good troubleshooter will take that info as ruling out the application as long as the version matches. That means next you compare libraries and permissions.

As a software developer, hearing "it works on my machine" from a subset of users is actually helpful information. It means the problem is environmental, or data related, instead of an explicit code issue. It does narrow things down a bit.

The issue arises when some people treat it as a reason to ignore a problem.

Ask them to ship their machine to you.

Me when I'm helping someone troubleshoot their issue and provided them with useful information, and they say I'm not helping them because I didn't solve it for them.

Of course, I'm at the point in my career where the people I'm helping are actual IT people, so they shouldn't really need me to solve it for them no matter how much they hope that would be the result.

When a user comes to me, I understand that the solution is what they need from me. Although I've also been accused of not helping by users who thought I was blaming them by asking questions like, "What were you doing when the problem occurred?"

And that is why I chose Debian as my distro. People aren’t developing with obscure small-time distros in mind.

Sound like a skill issue

What issue are you having?

Trying to do any type of hardware acceleration on waydroid.

Even worse when they instead lecture you on why you shouldn't do that

Did you tried putting it in the rice on the sun?

their machine: washing machine

your machine: coffee machine

That means that can't replicate it, you need to give more details or something.

nix fixes this

Useful datapoint.

It's okay, so is your machine

"well I provide this help on my own time so"

Tells you to Google it again
