Well yeah let’s elaborate on that. Merriam-Webster defines elitism as

1. Leadership or ruled by an elite
2. The selectivity of the elite
3. Consciousness of being or belonging to an elite.

That comment was suggesting open source tools while you’re posting in an open source social media platform in a community that is geared towards open source software. Please explain how that comment fits the definition above. It’s not elitist to assume that you’ve heard of git if you’re posting here. Someone suggesting something to you is not elitist just because it doesn’t work for you.

I don’t think I’m better than you because I know git or nix, but I do know that in the right circumstances, knowing how to use git or nix is a very valuable tool. I would love to help you solve your problems with these tools if given the opportunity. When a member of the community finds a tool they love, they just want to help others and suggest what worked for them. You really think that’s elitist attitude?

You talked about linux devs not embracing change and then promptly shit on NixOS for not understanding it lol
