My friends hate Linux!

I dunno... it looks so dated to me.... :rofl:

25. Hamburger icon

Having been invented for one of the first ever GUIs – the Xerox Star – in 1981, the Hamburger icon instantly became shorthand for hidden menu items.

Now, with the advent of mobile and the evolution of web design and user experience principles, the hamburger icon may one day be phased out.

Has anyone let the folks at Gnome know this?

Linux is an OS without advertisment:

Windows 11 includes built-in, advertisements, and promotional content, commonly appearing as "suggested apps" in the Start Menu, notifications, the lock screen, and the Settings app, often, personalized, through an advertising ID.

"My friends hate Linux!"
Have they actually tried a Linux distro and can elaborate what they hate about it?
Or is it ignorant dismissal of any OS that isn't from the Big Tech brigade?

This is true

I am reminded of a quote: "It's easier to sway a crowd of a thousand people by appealing to their prejudices than it is to sway one person with logic.
