Person who clearly really cares: “No one cares that you do thing”
He has probably seen countless people starting to use linux and is pissed by the percieved popularity.
Nah, it’s just annoying seeing it in SO many conversations. It doesn’t add anything to the conversation, it’s just some weird bragging.
If I see a post of weird bragging that I don’t care about I personally don’t feel the need to reply to them to let them know that I don’t care. I just keep scrolling.
If the weird bragging was happening enough to annoy me then I would down vote and keep scrolling.
No, not really?
In this case it’s a response to a pretty obnoxious comment. You could argue that the comment op is acting like an apple fan, ms fan or any kind of thing fan that enters a conversation.
It can’t be answered in this context, cause there is no context in the post.
What do you mean superior complex? I am superior
Imagine internalizing Microsoft/Apple abuse so deeply that you get angry at ppl who don’t want any of that shit
Yeah, I’ve actually been looking into trying Linux as my entire personality as well
wdym? or rather what are you referring to? (sry am a bit dense sometimes)
like as long as you are not the “basement-dwelling (arch) elitist” stereotype, advocating for free/libre software is pretty cool imo
(also did you just say Linux when referring to desktop? insert “actually what are you referring to as Linux is in fact GNU/Linux” copypasta here /j)
I’m a bit dense as well, so you’re among friends (not sure I fully get ur reply, tbh)
I was mostly piggybacking on your popular comment to poke fun at people that seem to take their choice of OS a bit too seriously. That “as well” at the end feels odd; it was meant more like the “too” at the end of “and I probably would’ve got away with it too.”
I had someone tell me that I was doing exactly that this weekend when I wrote a forum post and feedback submit to the company I buy my keycaps from for a 1.5u Tux or Logo key option rather than the windows 10 logo they currently offer.
I figure they’ll offer at least their logo as that’d sell really well (glorious, look em up for why), but having someone reply that I needed to not make Linux my whole life was weird
Windrones coping is always fun to see
Not sure it’s cope as much as being unable to accept that their attempted put down is having no effect. Bully is in their own head about their inability to get under someone’s skin.
A raging douche.
cope /kōp/
intransitive verb
-
To contend or strive, especially on even terms or with success.
“coping with child-rearing and a full-time job.”
-
To contend with difficulties and act to overcome them.
-
To form a cope or arch; to bend or arch; to bow.
As a foreigner it’s really jarring seeing this verb adopting a new meaning of “failing to cope”. I’ve seen it many times, it’s definitely not you and not new, but it does make the English language just a tad more inaccessible.
It’s their insecurities dripping through because they deem themselves power users and learn that they don’t actually know shit so they usually very ignorantly and incorrectly put it down. It’s a hard pill to swallow when they realize they are just LTT gamer bro Windows users that struggle to use something my grandma runs.
Ultimately, both of those commenters are annoying. Saying “I use Arch btw” is a useless self-serving statement that provides no benefit or information to the audience. But engaging with that message in the manner displayed is also pointless and stupid, even if the statement is correct.
The saving grace for the “Linux user” commenter is that they are self aware about being annoying, judging by their last comment. So hopefully they were just being ironic. Or rage baiting.
I use(d) Arch, btw.
I don’t know, I think it was pretty fun trolling after someone coming to say something as dull as “you want a medal or something”
Sure. But the original statement is just as dull. Assuming no specific context.
Made sense after watching the video the comment was made on(if it really is the right video)
