Please don't call regular people "normies", it creates a needless boundary between those who use FOSS and those who haven't yet.

Yes, that's why I put it in quotes, because I don't like using it either but at the moment I couldn't come up with a way to name normal people that don't know about the world of open source ๐Ÿ˜…. So thank you. Will see if I can change the title.

Edit: done!
