There are tradeoffs in every decision you make. To say Linux sucks because it doesn’t meet a specific need is very narrow minded. I love Linux even though it doesn’t meet all of my needs. I don’t like Windows even though it meets many of my needs. I don’t like MacOS though it might meet my needs (haven’t used it in years but I’m not against it).

Your hate for Linux is weird. Just install the OS that works for you and shut the fuck up. Not sure what you stand to gain with these daily shitposts.

If you’re a fan of Windows, start posting about the things that are great about Windows instead of yucking someone else’s yum.

    Just post the same info on any Linux sub. Linux users bash on Linux a lot (pun intended) when it’s deserved. The thing that most people from the outside miss is that we’re very sensitive to what is and isn’t a Linux problem, your game/software not working is not a Linux problem, just like how it’s not an Android problem not to run the same game.

    I haven’t seen that community but I would guess the majority of posts there are not actual Linux problems, therefore you might be downvoted and corrected if you post those links on a normal Linux community, but I don’t think any of them would outright ban you unless you were constantly spreading missinformation.

    Edit: just gave that community a quick look, currently the top threads are:

    • The one you replied, which makes no sense, no one says that’s a bonus, it’s a known issue and is in fact a fault somewhere in the Linux ecosystem. So posting about that issue would be acceptable in any Linux community.
    • A post about someone being banned from an online game for using Linux. This is not Linux’s fault, but still would be allowed in any Linux community, the general answer would be to stop giving money to a company that bans people for no good reason, but it is a valid topic of discussion as to how Linux users are mistreated by different companies. But as is the post is a Straw man of “Linux users say X” when no one has said X.
    • A post making a joke about Linux being good for development, yet under-develop. The content is about how professionals don’t use Linux, and I think that’s bullshit. A post about how companies force people to use Windows would be better and get the same point across. I have worked in several different companies, one of them I worked for over a year on Linux, writing backed server code, and one day they decided I couldn’t work on Linux anymore. It happens, it would be a valid post on Linux communities as well but it’s not a Linux problem, some companies allow it and it works well for them. Also a Straw man, the joke has no link with the content, and the content is about how people are forced to use a different system and act as if that’s their choice. Bb
    • A post about sudoedit, that’s a good one can be reposted as is.
    • Meme post that makes no sense outside of that community
    • A post about a long list of arguments from Linux users. There are a lot of interesting points of discussion there, but posting everything together is not insentivising discussion. A lot of the arguments there are simply wrong, but a good faith discussion can be had on each of those individually, however the answer to a lot of them will be among the lines of “but that IS Windows fault, or hardware manufacturer purposefully not targeting Linux”. In short this is Gish Gallop, which is not to say there aren’t good critics, but this should be split inyo multiple posts to allow proper discussion of all of them.

    So, in short if you reword things I expect you can post most of them on any Linux sub, but word for word might get you downvoted as they’re mostly fallacious arguments.

      I read ‘top threads’ and skipped the rest. You’re not getting better results when it’s a sub known for being brigaded. -We suggest sticking with ‘new’.
