    I love how this is the only shitposting sub where every single shitpost gets downvoted, then the Linux Stans jump in the comments to “ackshually…”.
    Proves the point of this sub with every single post ;-)

    I use Arch, by the way

      I really don’t care whether I’m proving the point of this sub. If it’s spreading misinformation, then it’s not shitposting, but rather posting shit.

      I’m ok with them simply making a point or correcting errors.

      Not sure what to do about the down-doots because I’d like this to be more welcoming to critics (or the sub topic). I was never a fan of the Karma system. People who can’t argue a point, or simply want to avoid karma trashing themselves abuse it. I practically gave up on reddit alternatives because they all adopted the same major problem with reddit.

      I’m trying to deter people from using promotional phraises like ‘I use Arch, btw’. I know it was probably sarcasm, but it can throw me off, cause inconsistency, and I’m not good at remembering names. -Did recognize yours (this time), thanks for your contributions!

        Downvotes don’t matter. Anyone browsing “All” is going to run into these posts when using the default sort which is “Active”, I think.
