    Lol don’t give them any attention. It’s the same 3 people who didn’t get loved enough during their formative years and cannot distinguish between good attention and bad attention

    Some of those posts are decent jokes to be honest. Some are just desperate/scare tactics though.

        I’m not sure. Some posts legitimately seem like Linux users making fun of themselves. Others really seem like people who have an actual grudge against it.

        If you satirically make a community about the Earth being a triangle, users who actually believe it will pop up eventually.

        Ehh, it’s not like Linux is perfect. And if we want more Linux adoption it’s good to have different perspectives and be made aware of things that perhaps we haven’t thought of. It could be useful to vent about Linux through memes if we can have proper discourse and are willing to work collaboratively to solve issues.

          a satirical linuxsucks would be so funny, like making fun of Linux for not having enough LLM integrations and ads

          Why do we want more Linux adoption? I think that’s part of the problem. There is no reason to try to oversell Linux. If someone doesn’t want to use Linux and they don’t ask to about it you shouldn’t just randomly show up and say to use Linux.

            If someone is complaining about windows, or raising privacy concerns that Linux would solve, or just talking about price options, then I think it’s perfectly fair to mention Linux.

            Right now the biggest issue with Linux is that some software is not made for it. With more Linux market share, devs have a higher incentive to build software for Linux. Like imagine if videogame devs didn’t think they needed windows to work, or Mac to run adobe.

    linux is terrible because removing the entire root folder can brick your system it should be more like windows where removing system32 can brick your system

      Well, Lunduke is making hour long nuanced content just with baity titles. And he doesn’t spend a portion of his days on banning people and sending snarky comments. This is mostly shitposting, ragebait and wrong factual claims…

    Microwaving any of your computer parts can brick them.

    I accidentally ran rm -rf / on my work MacBook once. Proper backups and patience with yourself are far better solutions than recommending to let Microsoft infect your computer.

      That, and due to the relatively small nature of the fediverse, simply being in the new tab makes things likely to be seen for quite a bit, enough for ~8 users to come in and explain how backwards they’re being.

    the one and only mod there was practically the only poster.

    it was honestly sad to see how much anger they harbored against a platform that literally doesn’t care.

    I just realized that I’ve already blocked both of the mods at some point in the past. The community looks really dead without their posts.

    Quick glance AFat that place and wow. Talk about people completely and utterly missing the point

    Yeah, I know I can be annoying when I tell people for the 100th time that they should install Linux, but I wouldn’t have to say that if they didn’t get their computer hacked / full of viruses / full with Microsoft bloat and spyware they want removed and come to me to fix that shit on each of those occasions.

      Its all one person. Literally 98% of the posts are one butthurt dude, who then goes on to complain that linux users are annoying because they make it their whole personality.

        The thing that he doesn’t understand is that he cannot ascertain my “entire personality” by simply seeing the facets of it I show in linux forums.

        Furthermore, I would argue that creating and singularly sustaining a salty “fuck linux” community puts OP pretty far up the list of “linux is entire personality,” even if “anti-” it’s still likely more than most of us tbh. Like I say, all I know of them is from that comm so I’m sure there’s other facets to their personality I’m not privy to, I’m just saying, who is really more obsessed, the guy posting in forums and sometimes recommending it as an alternative when people complain about windows, or the guy who runs a whole ass hate community dedicated to it? Ironic, really.

        ironic really. they became the thing the hated most.

        a platform bandoliering with an incessant need to promote their values as better than everyone else’s.

        the only saving grace for Linux fanbois is that they’re usually right.

    rm -rf / can brick your system

    Well good thing there’s basically no legitimate reason to ever even use rm -rf / anyway so GNU version is perfectly within its rights to refuse to do that by default, am I right? If you know what you’re doing and want to nuke partitions, that’s what cfdisk and mkfs are for, dammit

    Its one guy(whos the mod) posting a bunch of stupid shit there. A bunch of the posts are just “i compared you to a minority group so i win the argument”. Some of the “memes” are so badly made that it actually shows you problems with windows more than linux.
