the /r/linux subreddit thread about this is as awful as you would imagine.

The SJW’s are coming for your toothbrush!!!-

    The /r/linux thread has been brigaded by his groupies. This seems to be a trend when some racist transphobe cybercracker comes under fire.

    It’s also true that thar subreddit is trash. So maybe the thread would not have looked much different without brigading.

    Also I don’t understand the deal with Hyprland. For some reason the distro I use (void linux) can’t or won’t package it. Never looked into why.

      cybercracker

      hahaha I’m using that from now on

      That sub is normally trash, true. But, there’s another thread about this topic that’s a bit better.

      distro I use (void linux)

      How do you like that compared to other distros?

        If you want a layman’sol opinion between Arch Linux ARM and Void Linux I much prefer Void Linux partly because systemd. I don’t hate systemd but it seems to add a layer of esoteric complexity that I have discovered I don’t need through my usage of Void Linux.

        For example, I had been trying to set up a wifi USB adapter on Arch. I have installed and configured iwd for this. In Void, this would have been enough. But in Arch, there is a one-shot service that checks if network is available and other services that need network/internet can use this service as a depenendency. This is a nice feature but it turns out I then also have to configure this wifi interface in some systemd folder otherwise the one-shot service does not care a out the wifi adapter. Until I did this, some services would not start until the one-shot service timed out and failed and these kinds of problems are hard to google or ask help for because it is hard to tell in the first place what is going wrong.

        There are other things like how systemd comes with its own implementations of ntpd, dns confguration and even some cron equivalent. It is very confusing. I guess it’s valuable knowledge if one uses systemd distros all the time though.

      To be fair, there was another thread discussing the same topic, and many people were calling out the vaxry, and pointing out the amount of brigading going on. Once any topic like this is brought up, the worst type of people come out…

        Oh wow, that thread wasn’t around last time I checked (when I made my post in the weekly megathread), it really does go to show how the other thread is just entirely brigading when there’s a clear community consensus in the thread you mentioned of how fucked up it all is

        Honestly, I think /r/linux is somehow less of a cesspool than the Lemmy equivalent most of the time lol, though at least it so far hasn’t had this kind of brigading issue

            I remember that…it’s a shame people couldn’t just accept RMS isn’t perfect. Always looking for any reason to defend him
