“it’s weird and should be more stigmatized” that seems to be making a moral claim right? I guess you never explicitly said that it’s because it’s weird that it should be stigmatized, but it certainly seemed to be structured like that.

And ah maybe I misunderstood, what you were saying just sounds like how a lot of ppl talk about it on the vegan forums I used to regular, lmao.

I don’t think “it’s weird therefore bad” is a good argument. If you’re gonna argue for veganism (which I don’t have a problem work doing!) I think there are way, way better reasons.

But pirates aren’t taking anything

I’m curious to know what arch-based distro you’re talking about?

Can’t speak for the person you’re responding to, but honestly no, not really? Like, of course it’s a big deal that this stuff happens, but it’s so common that every individual story just seems obvious. It should def be recorded when we find those instances if not just for proof, but I personally just don’t care about seeing it my news. Especially when it seems pretty off topic for the technology sub.

I don’t think I’d necessarily agree with that, but just to note, op is recommending the BSDs, not Linux.

I think that’s ridiculous. I vastly prefer FOSS and so I won’t use this, but clearly professional software being ported to Linux is a big deal for Linux and its userbase.

Should we ban discussion about any distro that’s not certified by the FSF? Should we ban news about proprietary Nvidia drivers?

??? There are thousands of companies that do business in the US that aren’t american.

This seems like a very reasonable and pretty tame warning?

Wanting to restrict the rights of minorites isn’t a valid position. It’s vile and worthy of hatred.

Hell yea! I’ve used PopOS for a couple years now and it’s pretty fantastic. Being able to enable/disable it on the fly is super great, and you still have all the conveniences of a full DE.
