    Nah, this is just what it’s been like from the moment Lemmy got momentum. The fediverse is pretty fundamentally aligned with the goals and interests of the same people who are part of the FOSS and Linux philosophy. From where I joined more than a year ago, it’s been more or less the same.

      If that’s the case and I’ve somehow managed to just never see any of those threads until recently…

      They might want to know that constantly saying “Windows bad, Linux good” in every thread doesn’t convert people, it just gets annoying. That in turn makes people dislike the group and dismiss what they say without a second thought, even if they’re right.

          Posting as if your choice of OS is inherently superior to other choices is just pathetic.

        Actually, I saw enough comments about people switching to Linux that I finally said “what the hell” and took the plunge! Very glad I did, as I read more and more crap Microsoft is doing.

        And if you don’t like comments that won’t change anything and just annoy people…maybe you should reevaluate your bellyaching 😄
