It's not a culture thing. You'd have the same issues in Windows if there was a problem. Plenty snarky and dismissive answers. Some people just want an appliance and that's okay.

The biggest issue is that people end up running on poorly or non supported hardware. Buy a system from a company that designs with Linux in mind. System 76 Tuxedo etc. 90% of the issues are gone, poof. The final bit is dependence on or inability to leave a piece of software. There are options for most things on Linux. But not everything, and not always as you're familiar with. If that's a deal breaker, it's a dealbreaker. And that's too bad but understandable. No shade.
