installing mainstream Linux distros isn't arcane knowledge, if you can take a covid rapid test you can install Linux. Nerdy misogynists on the internet just want you too think its harder than it is, too inflate their own egos.
There is a windows program style installer and step by step instructions on the distros website. the most complex part is putting the install file on a thumbdrive which is fixed by ventoy

I agree but what does misogyny have to do with any of this?
@raccoon I can't tell if you're being serious 😑 but the large majority of tech nerds in the anglosphere are straight yt men the reason being that all these men think of women as less than and these straight yt men have had a long history of gatekeeping information and telling anyone not like them its too hard for them to understand. People at large have been made to feel to stupid to computer as a direct result of these men's distain for women. fedi doesn't reflect this but that's something else
@raccoon OK because it seems like you are genuinely confused. I will be nice one more time, but I'm letting you know I'm not here to debate or teach. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexism_in_the_technology_industry
here is a good start, people outside of tech spaces generally don't see a different between the Linux community and tech industry. there are queers everywhere But also the Linux community is most definitely not a historical queer space. go read mailing lists if you want a taste.

Yes, I was serious, because I was under the impression that the majority are queers, with trans women being a decent Alice of it.
And sorry I took a while to reply, I wasn't ignoring you, I just fell asleep.
