mods there have historically gone overboard with bans. One person said “dude is a gender neutral word” in a completely different instance and blahaj mods banned them cuz “transphobic” lmfao

Check out the whole track record on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

they even had to block this topic because of how frequent it is.

So it’s not out of the question they see this and think one is appropriating pride month

Have you been banned from blahaj lemmy yet?

If you don’t like people talking about it, don’t use Lemmy and go to Reddit where there are tons of Windows bros who dunk on Linux all day.

Nice gatekeeping… people like you are why these platforms are never taking off.

My home server runs debian, my main PC runs windows 11, and I have an iPhone and it all works very well. I don’t like circlejerks, they’re stupid, specially when they’re loudly incorrect.

Lemmy has a massive circlejerk problem to the point that you can’t even mention using proprietary stuff because you get screamed at by keyboard warriors.

Quick glance on my installed programs, and I count 7 apps I heavily use in windows 11 with no linux version, nor a clear equivalent that could replace them without extensive hacks that may or may not work and be a total waste of my time.

Also a funny thing: I installed Debian with KDE and then GNOME last year on another PC, and guess what? KDE & GNOME came bloated with a bunch of apps, games, office suite, code editor and other shit.

I thought the whole shtick of Linux/FOSS was that it didn’t make any default choices for you. That’s what I always read here when people cry about windows bloat.

The same cleanup & customization did for windows 11 I had to do to Debian KDE and then GNOME.

Point is: it’s not that easy and being and insufferable jerk about it its not gonna solve it. Let people use what they want.

Can I have the “religion bad” self insert comment next?

I wanna be in the middle of the circlejerk

With such a generic argument, I feel this smartass would come up with the same shitty reasoning if it came to using calculators and wikipedia or google when those things were becoming mainstream.

Using “AI to get through college” can mean a lot of different things for different people. You definitely don’t need AI to “set aside concern for truth” and you can use AI to learn things better/faster.

but the linux circlejerk swears game support is on par with windows!

Damn this community is a fucking joke. It’s actually not funny, just sad.

You all parade around the internet mounted on your high horses about FOSS this, decentralized that, libre this, reject capitalism that, etc.

But the moment you are asked to contribute your part you all start pretending to be holy saints lmfao. Most upvoted comments in these threads go like this:

“I can’t possibly donate to this project because this guy said that thing about trans”

And meanwhile every day you forgo your moral codes to buy all kinds of shit. Otherwise you’d be living in the middle of a remote island.

The people you all buy from don’t merely say something you find offensive, they do lobbying with their truckloads of money that affect how you live your life and further their own agenda.

These Lemmy devs put their work under a license that gives up the ownership and just ask for a living wage, yet by your logic they don’t deserve it?!

~70% of the US adults either wanted trump or at least OK with him, and by extension are ok with the muskrat

Maybe it’s time for the rest of the world to realize it’s not “just trump” but the USA as a whole is very racist, stupid and backwards country.

Maybe the pushback against trump we see all around social media is just the small loud minority.

Maybe it’s time to not consider Americans friends, and to stop supporting it as much as possible. I’ve started cutting off the american-made stuff I buy.

• More women voted for Trump this time compared to 2020
• 46% of women who voted did so for Trump
• Around 90 million people who could vote, did not vote (can be arsed to figure out how many women did not vote but probably half of that figure)
• Voter turnout will likely be less than in 2020

As a foreigner reading these articles, I can just laugh. This “movement” is too little too late. Probably not even a real movement given how social media is an echo chamber so fucking removed from reality.

Good for them I guess, but the chance of doing real change was a few days ago, so can’t take you guys seriously anymore. lmfao.
