Do you have anything to add to the discussion other than calling people "high on [their] own farts"?

No more to contribute then those who add their anecdotal experience of having used Linux on the desktop for 20 years "flawlessly" or that their grandma uses it and doesn't have any issues as a response to someone talking about how things they need don't actually work.
If you want to chastise me for echoing parent's sentiment then that's fine. I'm used to getting grief literally any time I complain about anything in Linux. Remarkably, the same is not true when I complain about Windows. Funny that.
Yep, exactly this. A portion of the Linux Desktop community is so high on its own farts that it can't tolerate the idea that people might have legitimate reasons for not using Linux as their desktop. If you have a problematic use case, their suggestion is to get a different use case.
