I never thought I'd be in an environment where FOSS user is the majority demographic.
I feel like I'm hanging out in a crypto community where Bitcoin maximalists are the majority... I hate it.
thats a perfect description. even the linux subreddit wasn't this rabid about Foss
And now they're stuck on the ever-worsening platform while it gets better every day here
Join us, you know in your heart that you want to 😈
I ended up getting banned from /r/Bitcoin, I might end up getting banned from /c/linuxmemes
Wait you weren't joking? What do you mean you've been seeing bitcoin maximalists?
No, I'm saying the FOSS maximalists act exactly the same as Bitcoin maximalists and that kind of closed mindedness is just bad for whatever these people like (open source software and crypto in their cases) as it just pushes people away.
You wouldn't convince people to try a hobby you like by sending the weirdo that insults anyone that doesn't like that hobby to talk to them... Well the weirdos have a platform now and they're loud as fuck and they're part of the group that's in majority so they get tolerated!
Heck, I was just arguing with one that called those who use closed source software "closed source cucks"...
Use Linux too but know exactly what you mean. This kind of people are fucking annoying and drive other people away
I remember being like that as a teen. Unfortunately, Linux has had an air of elitism around it for a long time, possibly since its inception.
That's a badge of honor, I bet you did something right.
Yes, arguing too successfully against them 🙃
