From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They are a video creator first and foremost, not a writer for a blog or a magazine. It's like demanding a janitor to make and serve you a meal just because they work in a kitchen.

And then asking the janitor why they're a janitor instead of a cook. Like, if you don't like videos that's fine, but what is the point of commenting on one saying "god I hate videos."

It's especially funny that they said that everyone defaults to videos when, at least with Linux related stuff, thats definitely not the case. This guy is one of the few not terrible Linux content creators, there really aren't many Linux dedicated content creators to begin with, so what's the harm of this? Go read the arch wiki or a blog if that's what you prefer, but don't needlessly shit on a different format that others may prefer or enjoy.
