I don't understand people who want their operating systems to be complicated so that they can learn about them.
I think I used to like learning about Linux when I was younger but now I just want my computer to get out of my way.
Linux as a field of study isn't interesting like computer science in general and other subjects are.
Also, I want to be able to dip into and out of learning, not have it forced on me when I want to do something else.
I'm still going to use Linux. I just don't want it to be complicated anymore.

@Hyolobrika
Linux became overly complicated for no good reason and ultimately not worth studying — too many layers of abstraction over other layers of abstraction, which are on top of that not fundamental, but rather volatile and get changed rapidly, new details get introduced and then deprecated in a short period of time.
Othentimes just throwing all of this shit away like Void does makes the system simpler, this easier to understand and it works better — at least for me it does.

Unfortunately, the absence of these layers of abstraction prevents some software from working, including rather popular software, but I don't care.
