Yep, following exact instructions to do the things that I intend to do
with a Linux distribution makes me a moron. It only failed because I
farted while doing it or something. Perhaps I didn't type the commands
fast enough or didn't press Enter at the exact time the planets aligned.
It's not Linux, it's never Linux. Some thing or body else is always at
fault.

Why's everybody always picking on me?

 I'm not even complaining, I'm used to this behaviour from the Linux faithful. Whenever someone points out one of Linux's flaws or is soured on using it because of the rotten experience it provides them, the lot of you jump on anyone stating the obvious like flies on a turd. Any time anyone shows Linux to be bad in one way or another, this is the only response you can provide:
 1) Not me, never!
2) You must have done it wrong!
 And then, when it is shown that Linux is the problem beyond a shadow of a doubt, and the person showing it is only looking for a bug to be fixed or for some problem to be corrected, you all disappear. It's the same thing here as it is on Linux forums on the web. Every so often, someone will "help" by asking the person to execute some obscure command which ends up doing nothing but making the problem worse.
 But you're right. Facing serious problems on day _one_ is a lot better than having to learn something awful like sfc /scannow or dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth whenever problems emerge. Only in the perfect world of Linux where commands like "tcpdump -A -s 10240 'tcp port 80 and (((ip[2:2] - ((ip[0]&0xf)<<2)) - ((tcp[12]&0xf0)>>2)) != 0)' | egrep --line-buffered "^........(GET |HTTP\/|POST |HEAD )|^[A-Za-z0-9-]+: " | sed -r 's/^........(GET |HTTP\/|POST |HEAD )/\n\1/g'" are the norm can anyone be happy.

* user error
* Linux is just the kernel
* RTFM newb
* Linux is perfect
* you're lying
* works for me
* you're running 3-hours-old code that's been updated
* you have the source code, fix it yourself
And my favorite:
"Whatever their problems is not the fault of Ubuntu"
In this particular case, you're running what appears to be a one-man hobby project that very likely had zero 3rd party testing.
