Linux

The Linux world have bad things, especially in userland and libc

When I was on reddit the ones spouting the most linux hate seemed to fall into two main categories.

1. those that tried it like 15 years ago and still hold a grudge.

2. dudes who heard people rave about linux but they themselves struggled with certain concepts when trying it out. And rather than realize they need to read instructions and learn new things, instead would rather blame linux for not working as expected.

Linux is pretty advanced today. It's not a baby anymore.

people who are new should be using immutable distros exclusively unless they're looking at this as a major project where they learn everything about it, IMHO

i've been helping people switch for a long time, all the dumbest things that have happened to people have been stopped by immutability.

Yeah, that guy's not joking.

It's not some kayfabe act. He is sincere in all of that posturing assholery.

Block and move on.

Unrelated but I got banned from the atheist memes community for calling one of the mods memes a boomer Facebook meme.

You should also take into account the animosity against lemmy.ml in general from some instances and communities. Something to do with the moderation here or something else.

For this exact reason i feel the fediverse should operate on #hashtags and the user should subscribe to their mods who will mark content for exclusion and filtration.

Meaning that instead of a ultimatum users can participate regardless of if bad mods ruin a community as per reddit /r/linux being ruined by loco mods.

This fiefdom format where topics are arbitrated and drum headded by fief lords is archaic and antiquated.

When the wrong man uses the right means, then the right means work in the wrong way.

Its our job to create systems that prevent this as much as possible through good design.

Pretty accurate meme though.

That whole community is just one guy posting memes. Some are funny but mostly its just odd how much he hates Linux.

Whatever :)

Hummm... Guess you're to sensible? I mean I'm die hard linux lover for 3 years now and will never switch back to Windows... EVER!

However, I found some of those posts quite funny !

It's the same argument I've heard about the "complexity" of Mastodon: too many choices, which is I guess why people largely stopped going to websites outside the major social networks. Monopoly over competition, it's like everyone is pining for a monarchy.

I read it as a jokey community and maybe you took it too seriously. Regardless that's a kinda silly comment to leave. That's a community for, ironically or seriously, hating Linux, so obviously it's not in the spirit of the community to leave a serious comment defending Linux.

I see a lot of Windows hate on Lemmy. If someone made a post here complaining about how much they hate Windows, and a Windows fan replied explaining why Windows is so great, I would say it's kinda heavy-handed but not totally ridiculous for a mod to ban them, since a Linux community is probably not for this person.
