How do you know someone uses Linux?

They'll tell you.

Peasant. I use slackware.

Or will, when I figure out this compiler error.

I built my own distro by typing in the machine code in hex from a magazine.

Something about manually guiding cosmic radiation onto your computer to flip individual bits...

So fucking true. Linux people are such a loud minority. Just keep it to yourself. I strongly prefer to just turn my computer on, play games or work and not deal with hardware and software compatibility issues and learn a new OS. Plus penguins smell bad. Alright ttyl.

I'm a windows windows user and windows is so fucking broken sometimes. Thinking about switching. Package managers are trash, os is buggy, explorer is buggy, search is buggy. Only thing thats keeping me on windows is gamepass

Yeah, same.

Thats why I use linux.

Like 90% of the internet is running on Linux. If being anywhere in the tech world is something you're interested in then it would behoove you to learn it. But if all you're interested in is the gaming then by all means rub the Cheeto dust on your shirt and yell for your mom upstairs to get you another bag.
