MODERATORS
The fediverse is definitely a “I use Linux, please clap” kinda crowd.
Whereas Windows is the clap.
You're absolutely not wrong.
But I'm still gonna clap.
More like the "if you use STILL use windows don't bitch about it because weve all been there and are over it" community. Like i dont know what it is with windows users that you all wanna have your obesity support group and complain about your problems to everyone but then get pissed off when people say exercise and eat less. Thats not even a good example because theres plenty of reasons beyond a persons control why they might be obese. But i bet even the people with thyroid issues get annoyed when the guy who eats ten cheeseburgers says "my knees hurt all the time and nothing helps"
I don't use Windows.
For real tho
Your comment also made me realise just how many posts I have seen complaining about non-linux users not using Linux, but how few I have seen complaining about using windows or w/e. Was the same on reddit and the same here now.
Yeah, I have had several people automatically assume I use Windows, and I don't as my daily machine. I couldn't give two flips about MS, really.
I don't even dislike Linux. But a lot of these users here, man, just woof. A lot of these folks will point fingers and say Mac people are all Mac zombies and that's bad, but then turn around and kiss that grainy photo of Linus Torvalds where he's standing in front of an old, shitty computer.
Found the windows user
Nope.
