I feel like 75% of Mastodon are people talking about Linux. If you don’t care about Linux you feel alienated. I enjoy Mastodon and Lemmy, but the lack of more diverse subjects gets to me if I browse for too long.
Update: I took your advice and purchased a laptop for Linux, and now I care about it! Problem solved.
The difference between our advertising and that of the megacorps is that ours is actually driven by passion and love for what we use and create. And that passion won’t stop.
Ok, and?
I’m not interested in using Linux as a desktop OS. I’ve often made that clear, only to be met with “but have you tried this?”
It does the exact same thing as it does for vegans. Instead of bringing people to your cause you alienate them by constantly shoving it in their face.
Well there’s your problem! Maybe don’t start a conversation if you don’t want to invite responses.
(Also, I’m not going to point out that your claim that Linux still isn’t a functioning gaming OS is no longer true, since you apparently don’t want to hear it. You’re welcome.)
Until all the major anticheats can run on it I can’t consider it a functional gaming OS. If there are games that work on every other major gaming platform, except for Linux, then it’s not up to the same standard
Just saying that you are dealing with passionate people who will not stop. You can either realize and accept that or be annoyed by them forever
Or you can stop trying to force it onto people. Idgaf about your passion. I don’t want to hear about you being vegan and I really don’t care if you only use Linux.
It’s putting people off of joining the platform. I think that’s clear enough that it’s a problem
Maybe if you’re an asshole to enough Linux users they’ll stop talking about it. Lmao
Then you choose to suffer… Go on, keep fighting against windmills.
You remind me that there really are people who want to be upset all the time. And talking to those people is always a waste of time, so bye
My guy, you’re the one here trying to shove Linux down my throat on a completely unrelated comment. Sounds more like you’re projecting your problems on me.
Linux is not going to be the future. It’s great for a server os, but it’s still not a viable desktop os for the majority of user. Extreme power users love it because of the customization power, and users who only ever browse the web won’t notice a difference, but everyone in-between doesn’t. Not everyone is a power user, and not everyone wants to be a power user.
Lmao…
It’s the past… Present, and increasingly the future. You apparently don’t realize how you sound. Like someone stuck in a friend group of 3 in a small town in 1995
False dichotomy.
There’s also blocking and/or muting.
Doesn’t change the fact they’re annoyed every time they need to block a new person. And there will always be new FOSS enthusiasts, especially on this platform
