    Rare is a matter of popular practice, not difficulty.

    It’s rare to walk around with an actual tinfoil hat, but not difficult or expensive to do.

      When someone says “rare operating system”, the word “rare” describes “operating system”.

      Here is the statement again:

      Normal people either can’t afford these devices or don’t have time for all the hassle of installing and using a rare operating system on a phone.

      In your sentence, “rare” is used to describe “it”, a pronoun, which refers to the action “to walk around with an actual tinfoil hat”.

          I commented a user’s use of “rare”. Then you did the same to my comment.

          I didn’t think how the initial poster use of the word “rare” meant to describe “a matter of popular practice, not difficulty.” So I replied back to you.
