Why, tho? Is it because it's not basically an advertisement for some large language model?
You lincucks are so fucking deranged
Why do you like Windows so much, then?
I NEVER SAID I LIKED WINDOWS WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH YOU PEOPLE CONSTANTLY PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH!?
I say 'FUck linux' so you immediately assume that I'm some microsuck fan
I say 'Fuck capitalism' and you immediately assume I'm a communist
I say 'Fuck ratheists' and you immediately assume I'm a conservative evagelical that wants to institute Biblical law
I have never been or wanted any of these things but every FUCKING time I point out the flaws, everyone just immediately assumes I'm an anti
And I'm so fucking tired of it because it erases ALL MOTHERFUCKING NUANCE in EVERY discussion is comes up in
Fuck off
Get bent
Die lonely
"FUCK LINUX" is, like, tooooootally something a Microsoft hater would say, am I right, guys? /s
This also contradicts what you initially said.
I have supported windows infrastructure since the early 90s and I can guaran-fucking-tee you there are few people on the planet who hate windows more than me
And before you make another one of your ridiculous assumptions, about 2/3rd of the infrastructure I have been personally responsible for are running linux
Show me, I'm SO fucking tired of this
I genuinely wonder why you said "fuck Linux" if you claim it was "pointing out a flaw".
I was generalizing the fact I criticize every OS I support, not making the claim that 'fuck linux' is in any way a critical examination
I say 'fuck linux' for a multitude of reasons, all of which when posted earn me literal WEEKS of comment stalking that the mods and admins refuse to address, so I have kind of stopped.
Since you have been the only level headed voice in this tread I will give you two of my main reasons:
Lack of cohesive anything really. Every distro is so functionally distinct that solutions working on one are not even available for another even closely related distro. Different package managers, different BASH implementations, different print managers. None of which really offer a significant advantage and most are just vanity projects. I think this is the primary reason there will never be broad deskop adoption.
Secondly, the community has been ridiculously toxic to anyone but other enthusiasts since the mid 90s at least, with a seriously undeserved air of superiority for the most flimsy of reasons. There isn't a single fuckdamn thread on lemmy where people make a complaint about windows where a dozen fucking lincucks don't dive in to roost and cackle
I have four more and I'm done wasting my time on people who can't understand what I write.
I just noticed that you also got banned from several communities for writing uncivil comments.
No, what you noticed is a concerted hypermod harassment campaign that has followed me for eight months now
Check and see how many communities I've been banned from that feature the same 3 fucking mods...
Based on the vast majority of comments in your modlog, I'd say those bans were fully justified.
That's funny because you and I can't see the comments I was banned for, only the responses of the mods
And when I check my notifications, 90% of the time they don't even reference a post or a rule
If you actually saw the comments I was banned for, you'd see they aren't even 1/4 as vitriolic as the harpies that gathered to dissolute the thread
But that's a 'feature' of lemmy that prevents anyone being mod harassed from defending themselves
At least on reddit when a mod removed a post it still existed in your own personal post history. Not on lemmy tho
Deliberately.
my man, my only experience with your comments is this very thread, and that's all I need to know that your bans were justified. Your ban from this community is going to be justified too.
Die alone and forgotten
