The Raspberry Pi community in a nutshell is wannabe homelabbers that know nothing about computers, but think they are extremely knowledgeable. I hate it.

A great example of that are the various undervolting and underclocking threads on the forums. A bunch of users saying "you don't need to do that, the Pi will underclock itself when it gets too hot", "75°C is fine, it doesn't hurt the board in any way" and "get the official case and that is good enough."

@pernia Or the various custom OSes that have no reason to exist besides being a PnP solution for normies. Imagine installing a custom OS just for a DNS resolver with a fancy dashboard and some filtering options. Potential of the SBC completely wasted on doing something my dumb washing machine could do.
