Not gatekeeping is not dumbing it down.
Real Linux users share their generic knowledge. They gained it relatively freely. Not like a payed MS course.
Hiding knowledge curtails advancement. All OS projects allow free use of their softwares. If you change it, post it back. If you use it. Good on you.
Arch gatekeepers are douchbags. If they used Windows they'd prolly still be the same. Douches.
That's OK, nobody is forcing you to use any flavour.
I loved fedora and CentOS. They use older more stable kernels and modules. So I changed.
I been using Linux for EQ since 2001. Bit of muck arseing around then but I did have a gun linux user as an IRL friend. So not reperesentative here.
However now, it should be trivial, it is gold (at last look) on WineHQ may be plat by now.
