I understand the impetus behind RTFM - It happens when the user failed to do basic troubleshooting and expects others to do their thinking. Being blown off doesn’t feel great, but other people’s time is valuable, and in the end your system is your own responsibility.

Hear hear! It’s wild to see what Mac and Windows users put up with. The Linux experience may sometimes be cryptic and frustrating, but at least I know I’m not paying for the privilege of being shat on by a large corporation.

Flatpak is love, flatpak is life.

Installing Linux on your buttplug is a bold move, I say.

“Alias? What is that?”

Noooo, you cannot have a consistent UI/UX experience across platforms with decades old commands and tools, my imaginary grandma might get confused, also you need three IT degrees to type “man command” into a term window.

Must be the reason why I’m king of my castle

Must be the reason why I’m freeing my trapped soul

Must be a reason why I’m making examples of you

Copypasting a term command vs. 20 pages of “click here, now click there”. Which is more efficient?

Mumla? Is it even still being updated?

The “me not know which server to join hurdurr” has always been a bad faith argument aimed at eliminating non corporate silo internet. I invite anyone who uses it unironically to start taking brain pills.

Raises hand I might be some people 🥺

“If Russia is so great why do we live here?”

Tell this every time they start bullshitting.

Same, except I just use vanilla Ubuntu. It’s no longer the early '00s, you don’t have to tinker with configs on off the shelf hardware.

Can you imagine being in control of your hardware? With Linux you can.

It reminds me of conspiracy charts that gets posted on Facebook by your aunt.

Its name is dangerously close to fsck. Can you fuck fsck?

Doing a 1/1 recreation of niche communities from reddit is a fools errand. Let communities develop on their own, or even better, simply federate existing communities.

Aren’t you guys sick of forced infinite growth in every aspect of our collective existence? The Fediverse is not shareholder owned, we don’t have to be slaves to The Red Line That Must Go Up. Reddit went to shit when it was aggresively mainstreamed, I don’t want it to happen to lemmy as well.
