For knowledge and awareness about what using Linux is really like and pointing at its cultish toxic community. We also cover FOSS /FLOSS failures, and issues with GPL since it relates to Linux. Moderation is heavy handed to appeal to our target users. Rules: 1. FOSS (especially GPL) advocates and Linux (specifically GNU/Linux) evangelists aren’t welcome (GNU Hurd will count as Linux). -We ask that you block us and we will perma-ban for violations of this rule. 2. Try to stay on topic (that is LINUXSUCKS!). No bashing other OSs or each other. We aim for a cohesive non-toxic community with the interest of cautioning people / would be victims from Linux. At our discretion, we will remove what we consider pollution. 3. Moderators run the sub, not the users. It’s not democratic, and we don’t care how you think it should be run. -Feel free to make and run your own community. 4. “Not your Billboard” -Over-represented companies will have positive posts removed and appropriate bans may be issued. -Those companies included so far will be Valve/Steam/Proton, Google, and Brave (browser). #### ⚠️Collection of Articles ⚠️Linux/FOSS can damage hardware or firmware [https://p.lemmy.world/post/lemmy.world/47921415] 🪤Linux Community Advice Breaks Windows [https://p.lemmy.world/post/lemmy.world/49429267] 🫃Mixing Apps Bloats LiGNUx [https://p.lemmy.world/post/lemmy.world/47947709] 😎Linux running servers isn’t a brag [https://p.lemmy.world/post/lemmy.world/47963483] 👾Is Linux Running Games Near Windows Performance Impressive?
