100%. I get where he’s coming from, but making it seem like this is all a conspiracy by marketers is just ridiculous. If you prefer text, that’s fine! But no one is going into the arch wiki and spamming about how they should ditch it for video. Different things appeal to different people, and writing off an entire format just because Google has enshittified YouTube is just dumb.
Wow, thanks for calling me stupid man, really appreciate it. Lemme know when/if you’re interested in having a civil conversation instead of spewing insults every other sentence.
And then asking the janitor why they’re a janitor instead of a cook. Like, if you don’t like videos that’s fine, but what is the point of commenting on one saying “god I hate videos.”
It’s especially funny that they said that everyone defaults to videos when, at least with Linux related stuff, thats definitely not the case. This guy is one of the few not terrible Linux content creators, there really aren’t many Linux dedicated content creators to begin with, so what’s the harm of this? Go read the arch wiki or a blog if that’s what you prefer, but don’t needlessly shit on a different format that others may prefer or enjoy.
I’ve heard countless times it’s one of the slowest package managers and the last time I tried opensuse it confirmed that, though that was a year ago, so I guess improvements have been made
It’s fast. That’s why it’s great. I’ve considered switching to opensuse a lot, but the speed of pacman compared to how slow zypper is always drags me back to arch
Also believe his (proprietary) software would brick switches if it detected other software, though don’t quote me on that.
Yeah and neither is paint.net
I’m a Linux nerd and even I don’t get this 😭
Not to mention, it drove me mad how her comics devolved from sorta eh relatable stuff, to just complaining about hate and sexism and how terrible her fate is. If it’s really so bad that she can’t resist making half her comics about it, maybe she should take a break instead of going on this “everyone’s sexist, everyone hates me, they are all awful people” spiral. It was especially annoying how she ended up responding to legit constructive criticism the same way as the genuinely awful sexist shit, but I digress.
