Then why do people pretend that being ‘downvoted to hell’ means anything here? Why would they point and say ‘echo chamber’ hypocritically?
The truth is that Reddit is shady AF with their shadow bans, control of information, inconsistent rule following, etc. I’m actually trying to get more users here.
I tried on Gab. -What happens when I correct someone on Gab about Linux? -They upvote and thank me for it! A community there for “Linux sucks” served no purpose.
edit: I’m also against religion (worse cult) and didn’t want to support the owner’s evangelism. -But the site is ran pretty decent, and it’s not bad when curated (another shady thing about Reddit is the limitation on blocking users).
I’ve seen a few of your posts on Linuxsucks@lemmy.world. I can appreciate a minority view and you don’t strike me as hostile with other users, but many of the points you made frankly make little sense to me. Some even stike me as deranged or at least misinformed. I hope you are doing this out of passion or get some other form of genuine joy out of it. I’d hate for Linux to make you anyone feel miserable.
If you point out any where I’m wrong, I will correct it.
So far, none of the LiGNUxers are.
AFAICS they work for Microsoft.
It’s like when I was into conspiracy theories and wondered why Alex Jones wasn’t easily recognized for the controlled opposition, he is.
Imagine correcting me on anything. Everyone criticizing the community has the opportunity and NEVER does.
Maybe because I’m right and not deceiving people and turning them into hardened Microsoft fans.
It’s precisely the reason why many other licenses exists, and that are used for those who want to offer OSS as a service. It is still open, but the service is sold as a guarantee.
But never mind that. Because when you look at stuff like Microslop, Apple, and pretty much any other commercial proprietary software developer. They do so the same way. Games are not sold, they are licensed, with no guarantees of functionality either, just to put one example. It’s a mar of software as an industry, not exclusive to FOSS and definitely not created by the ideological underpinnings of FOSS.
Like, MS offers guarantees of quality and offer liability on their ToS for corporate contracts, but not for the version people can acquire for their home PC. Even then, the liabilities are very limited and cautiously defined. Essentially, unless MS is doing IT directly for your company, you are on your fucking own. And then, support channels for corporate service are very limited on what they do and do not offer. The average Joe buying a Mac or any other PC with Windows essentially get the same “software is provided ‘as is’ and we don’t care if it doesn’t work." It’s not associated to FOSS exclusively.
How about I despise communism and how it only works when workers are forced to work at gunpoint. Or, I haven’t seen any legit gripes against Microsoft.
Politically, I’m centrist, because both pure extremes fail. -China isn’t 100% communist.
Linux takes the position of ‘competition’ for Windows while being an eternal loser. They squash other great projects by taking their ideas and making them work with then objectively shitty (for desktop) kernel.
Linux is a ‘best case scenario’ for Windows. (Yeah, you’re actually helping Microsoft by being an evangelist).
I’m sceptical this is genuine… it sounds like cope to me, but it’s interesting… Anyway, I appreciate my experience isn’t universal. So what Linux alternatives do you mean, like BSD and stuff?
I try to keep an open mind about people preferring the Microsoft stack, but from the first time I used a terminal on Linux I was sold. I could never go back.
I still do support for people who use Windows PCs, so I’ve got to see how it’s changed over the years. Personally I don’t know how anyone puts up with it.
It seems like Windows keeps getting worse as Linux keeps getting better… like… do you enjoy using Windows 11? Does it feel good to you?
Communism literally never had a chance to evolve as a system because USA systematically fucked it over and fought it at every step, in the process committing horrific crimes against humanity along the way. Would you like some historical examples of what capitalism has done to humanity and democracy worldwide for centuries or are you just more of a “see the thing with communism is… It just doesn’t work!” kind of guy?
Man that subreddit is a trip. Really funny to actively hate FOSS on ideological grounds because you just love corporations and markets so much.
There’s one here on Lemmy too. I got banned this morning for sharing this post lol.
Here’s a post from it defending Telemetry of all things.
Man that madthumbs guy is really trying to make that a thing and it’s kind of sad and lonely that he’s off by himself pretending he has a community…
Please please please don’t brigade/harass that community!
I love it! It’s like watching flat earthers. I NEED this popcorn.
I’m not quite sure it’s a “community” as such - it looks like just one guy having a bit of a nervous breakdown on his own.
Lol it’s an LLM post too
Yeah I was just about to edit my comment to mention that. Like bro why are you here it’s built on the same ethos you hate in linux.

youanyone feel miserable.So do you like make all these linux hate memes yourself, or are you sourcing them from various linux hate communities?
Lol the guy talks about linux like it’s his job or special interest.
You got banned for breaking the rules. Integrity isn’t common among evangelists.
There he is! Evangelism, sure. Idk man you got some weird shit going on, but you do you. 👍

Oh my god not the rules!

That’s a lie. The community and every post on it was locked for several months.
If you continue wasting your opportunity here, I’ll just block you here too. I’m not into wasting time.
Yeah, especially when there are so many legitimate ideological grounds you could use to hate on FOSS, like: https://cosocial.ca/@mhoye/116851056980506739

It makes more sense if you see capitalism as a game and these folks as gamer fanbois.

11 is fine. I don’t miss XP, 7,or 10 at all. 11 is an upgrade.

Please read what I wrote again. I’m not about arguing with someone who glazes.
