      This thread is bonkers. Is it some genetic thing, or are Linux users more prone to ingrown toenails?

      Nah, ingrown toenails just happen. Might be a genetic thing or something. As a kid I had to get like five surgeries for it on my right big toe and then when it wouldn’t stop happening they eventually killed the root at that side of the toenail with some kind of acid to prevent it from happening again. I still occasionally get ingrown nails on the big toe of the other foot that didn’t need the surgery.
