To be totally fair, I don’t mind people being critical about Linux in our Linux community. And he brings up a few good points, but loses in some other. And so the arguments he has are muddied with his tone as well, that it comes over as a toxic comment rather than a critical comment pointing real issues.
I’m a Linux fanboy, but even I realize there are problems. And its okay to talk about problems. But its not okay in the tone he did. In my opinion.
I’m not sure if that was his goal, so I wouldn’t say the person was a troll or like that. I think it was just a situation of frustration and then losing control a bit. I’m not excusing it, just trying to analyze and looking between the lines and above and after. Yeah, I pretty much learned this skill from Reddit days. :D

Definitely. There’s a difference between critique and criticism. The former has a goal that’s constructive. The latter just seeks to tear down.

You’re good people. Lemmy is only better if we make it that way with intent and action.
