    In addition to the perception that you have to be “good at computers” (aka a programmer) to use Linux, in my experience a lot of Linux media outlets (websites, YT channels, podcasts, etc) tend to be heavy on advanced features and tools without much explanation in layman’s terms and tend to be geared towards an IT professional/hobbyist audience, which can reinforce that stereotype among those (like me) who are not.

      Yeah, this explanation makes the most sense to me.

      Just a generalisation that “good at computers” is a programmer. So no Apple programmers :P (joking ofc)
