Yeah, I get that. The tribalism can be a bit of fun sometimes but there are too many people who take it way too far. I don't understand using it as a means of division.
At the end of the day, there is far more that unites us than divides us. We seek to empower ourselves and reject the ever increasing corporate control of our computing and digital lives. For some that means self-hosting their own cloud stuff and for others it is simply being able to boot into the OS and edit an Office document without needing ridiculous fucking subscriptions.
Yeah.. I think I just figure everyone everywhere does that kind of stupid 'in group' bs. But overall, they're pretty niche, useless, and not too intrusive.
Oh, this thread isn't just an evaluation, this is from a [windows/mac/linux/amd/nvidia/republican/democrat/socialist/capitalist/lemmy/reddit/etc/etc/etc] fanboi.
