    Everyone pretending you don’t have to enter your password on Linux considerably more often than the other OSs is part of why Linux does not achieve mainstream adoption :(

      Yeah, that was it.

      I asked my grandmother why she didn’t use Linux and she cited the fact that people were in denial about the frequency of password use in POSIX-based operating systems as her primary reason.

      How often do you run things as sudo my guy. That might cause having to enter a password a bit more often, but i can’t imagine it being that bad that someone would rage quit using linux. Seems like a huge exageration to me.

      You’re skipping the point were people tell you that it is a question of your settings and not a matter of the operating system.
