the linux problem

When a project gets made by a technical person, which leads that person to subconsciously optimize it for other technical people instead of user friendliness, thus attracting a user base of technical people, which contribute to the product to reinforce that cycle even more.

Hey man, your app is really suffering from the linux problem.
