pros
>There are some gentoo users and a lot of them know their shit so I might graduate from my Arch babbie grade.
>I guess I would learn some things
>Maybe my first attempt at "networking" which might lead to opportunities.
> some of them are using thinkpads and I guess that there's some x201 user so I might have a free tech support coupon.
>they look like they are happily welcoming new members.

cons
>It's actually quite far from where I live. like 1h30 to get there, maybe more.
>I never fit in a linux group before. I'm not that "nerdy". My hobbies don't interest then and my linux skills are pretty much "install arch and rice openbox" tier.
>The cringe : There is dude that non ironically wears a fedora indoors. Another skinny long haired one is likely to be a brony. There's also a self proclaimed """king of nerds""" that protects his """geek cred""" by tries to bully those with a faint of charisma.
>There is no female member despite the misleading description they provide.
>I don't know if I'm ready to actively be a member of an activity that is not held in my uni campus.
> train fee would be expensive in the long run and I might be better off by saving the money to finally have nice hardware and get my "linux lessons" by lurking /g/ and IRC.

That was also my initial choice : not to join.

The biggest con to me sounds like the distance.

Go once, see how it is, if you don't like it, never go again. It's literally that simple. If nothing else you have a nice story to tell your normie friends.

How is that far of a drive local to you

Yeah, it can be my next awkward story i'll tell when I would want to shine among my peers.

Because it takes 20min to go to the train station, 1h of train, counting the change of lines, and about 10 min to get to the place.

I'd live closer to the city but I can't afford such a rent.
