Like one reply above said, "mostly egoistic and self-righteous techgeeks, the desktop Linux community is a freely anarchic and toxic community, like a pack of wild dogs".

I know Matthew usually sounds quite self-righteous sometimes, but I've come to understand that he actually cares about the community, even if he doesn't choose the best words to express it. I think it's in human nature to find ourselves right when we have any kind of interest in something.
