Like, I get it - there are people in both communities that might be pushy in one way or another. But, like, come on. One of them is a way of life that strives towards excluding as much pain and suffering in the world of innocent beings as possible and the other is a fucking OS. Grinds my gears.

Any thoughts?

Edit: What I meant specifically is the "pushiness" and "preachiness" that's attributed to both. Not sure if this is just my bias from observing comments about the recent discourse around the whole vegan cat food debacle, but yea

This was unexpected. I'm a vegan Arch Linux user, never heard of any association to be honest.

Hey, me too. Maybe we all are and there is no comparison, but vegans and Arch users are the same group!

me too, I like to joke that were in the top 1% of the top 1% seriously though when you start collecting social causes it starts to feel like youre all alone doesnt it, I'm glad we've got this space, I'm also an anarcho communist
