Many of us are notorious fence-sitters. This video attempts to explore some of the psychology of our profound hesitation when switching operating systems. I will share my personal experience, talk about some of the fears we face when making big changes, offer some warm encouragement, and do it all without a whiff of the elitist technobabble that tends to rear its ugly head in Linux discussions.
i too merely flirted with linux for years until my windows me started boot looping and then i was forced off that fence 25ish years ago and has been the biggest reason i’ve been able to stay employed since then.
the video is right about the reasons why people don’t want to switch and part of me wishes he used a sink or swim story like mine since the worst case scenario is trying to swim again later on when it comes to linux.
