The Linux community is awesome, but Linux has its quirks and annoyances too. In this video, I rant a little about five Linux pet peeves, from tutorials that auto-confirm commands with “-y” and messy source installations, to elitism and the myth that Linux requires the terminal. Think of it as constructive criticism from someone who wants to see Linux succeed.
