If you're not willing to reflect, introspect, grow and most importantly **stop**, you will not be happy with Valetudo.

Before continuing, pause here for a second and think about what that _actually means_.
1. To survive within a culture (and even more so to be successful within it), people will (to some degree) embed it into their thinking; usually subconsciously.
This is not an individual failing but human nature. It is how society works.<br/>
Precisely because it is how society functions, if someone can selectively control whether they adhere to it, it often scares people, as it is a threat to reality itself.
Society then usually attaches labels such as "psychopath" or "successful CEO" to such a person, though sometimes, reality might also just be a mundane "neurodivergent" or "philosophy major".
2. The idea of "counter-culture" is to **counter** the dominant culture, meaning that it _will_ be painful with increasing intensity,
the deeper ones beliefs anchor into said culture.
Keep that in mind, as due to it, all the communication here is effectively throwing industrial quantities of salt from the sky.
This means that _if_ there is an open figurative wound _somewhere_, no matter how small it might be, it will hurt.
The sometimes perceived FOSS default culture stance is to **not** do this, as, for obvious reasons, it harms adaption and scaling.
There is however no law stating that whatever you do must adhere to defaults and default goals other people believe exist.
