sick burn bro. idk how my ego will ever recover.

so the generalization of everyone who says “Ubuntu sucks” up into a “Reddit hivemind” is a complement now?

who knew!

I can’t have sympathy for someone who’s committed war crimes.

I agree that having a platform to expose Russian interference is helpful, I also think setting an example to those who are helping Russia (coerced or not) is far more helpful than exposing Russia.

like Trumps? or Epstein? or the Pandora Papers?

the list goes on and on.

Overton window is broken. Putin threw someone out of it.

can’t get more public than a hanging on the docks that’s live streamed.

“surprise Dave! you cheaped out and got a plug from China! now you’ve got shrapnel in your lower intestine!”

you’re kidding right?

they’d be hanging it for him.

I guess they should start negotiating for better bulletproof vests instead of golden parachutes.

I wouldn’t even waste my time with Fedora after IBM bought redhat. and that’s rough coming from someone who daily drove fedora for over a decade.

IBM has a history of suddenly dropping or changing support and telling its customers/communities to “eat shit”. I can’t put my trust in that.

it’s the “Reddit hivemind” when a large group shares their opinion that your OS of choice has many flaws, but a large group of people defending their poor choices in OS is…not “hivemind” mentality?

it’s amazing honestly, the amount of mental gymnastics we go through to protect our fragile egos because we honestly believe a corporate product will somehow enrich our lives to the point that they will suck less.

if only we could get past this and objectively look at the tools as tools and be able to have an open discussion about why they suck.

but no…let’s keep denigrating each other so that our side will come out victorious.

in another post I triggered the whole community so much that a mod had to step in, the irony of my commentary completely lost on everyone. it would be amusing if it weren’t so sad that there’s so much useless emotion wrapped up in this argument.

and here I am maintaining my own x11 containers like a damn fool.

why can’t I? they obviously get to speculate about why users will run away from Ubuntu when anyone points out failures in their OS of choice.

I merely speculated that there were physiological abnormalities that may be contributing to the continued support of a corporate facsimile of Linux.

I’m not gatekeeping. they can use whatever OS they want, I’ll still mock them for using Ubuntu because it’s a sub-par OS built by a worldwide corporation that sells your telemetry to its vendors.

not to mention they force their proprietary app shitstack on their users that the Linux community at large continues to complain about.

so no, not gatekeeping, just calling out the worst parts of a corrupt shit-os.

And NEVER call anyone brain-damaged for any reason.

even if they have brain damage?

Removed by mod

people who get self-esteem from a distro are fragile snowflakes.

I speak poorly about Ubuntu not because it makes me feel empowered, but because it really is a bad distro made by a terrible company.

first thing I thought of…

just like I said the other day.

in a year Lemmy will be a cesspool of extremist thoughts and opinions. left, right, doesn’t matter.

the average Lemmy user is become far more caustic towards any differing opinions and that directly increases the toxicity of the platform.

this is why mods are trying to be pedantic about the rules in communities, but unfortunately they’re only accelerating it.

they’re removing all the content under “incivility” that calls out or questions bullshit yet leaving toxic misinformation up because it breaks “no rules”.
