How The Media Treats Linux in 2024

The “Reluctant Anarchist” creates insightful videos about Linux and his experiences with our beloved Operating System. This week’s video explores the often contentious relationship between mainstream media coverage and Linux, particularly focusing on how some writers approach reviewing products like the Steam Deck. It highlights a trend of negative language and bias, with some reviewers using Linux as “rage bait” or dismissing it without exploring its capabilities fully. Despite this, the video emphasizes the positive impact of Linux, especially through products like the Steam Deck, on gaming and technology as a whole.

While VanLUG has monthly get togethers, the “Reluctant Anarchist” pledges to combat this negativity by producing high-quality content that educates and promotes Linux, announcing a new schedule of weekly uploads to support the community and encourage understanding.

Steam Deck available here.
