You can always use the Steam flatpak since Valve packages their Linux runtimes seperately within the client. I might be wrong, but flatpak should solve mismatched version/depedency hell.

You could also use declarative package managers like Nix or Guix to also avoid this same issue.

Don’t worry, Linus Torvalds has also complained of the same thing when asked whats holding back the GNU desktop.

Anyway, KDE is better than gnome! Thanks for reading!

Based KDE enjoyer vs. Pog GNOME fan moment. Also, you’re wrong but also right in so many ways.

The self crit is to stop engaging with you all anymore. Clearly its more socially acceptable to view rms as a perverted creep than to take his entire personhood into account and find some nuance.

Taught me a great lesson of to not give a shit.

I guess that’s your opinion to have.

idolizing a man who defends pedophilia and statutory rape

He doesn’t and you keep falsely saying that he does. Your wording makes it sound like he still defends it even today so I have to push back on that.

I’m pedantic because you all are so loose with your wording that I can barely comprehend what you really mean.

I think most everybody thinks of the family of FOSS based operating systems when they hear Linux, and derivative projects like android are usually considered their own separate thing.

True, but it doesn’t have to be this vague nor does it have to ignore the GNU project to do it.

Ah yes, reactionary is when someone makes a bad take and then learns from it.

Free software is allowed to be commercial. This also coincides with the fact that free software is often under copyleft which prevents large firms from abusing it in their nonfree programs.

Allowing capitalism in is ultimately what led to the Open Source wreckers.

Open source wreckers were emboldened by corporations to advocate for weaker protections and pushover licenses. To claim this is a fault of the FSF is nonsensical and ahistorical.

Free software to this day is still a very community driven movement that places large value in sharing and removing boundaries to software. The commercial clause is to stay consistent with the fact that you’re allowed to redistribute the software without any restriction (The GPL makes sure that freedom has to be preserved).

Again, you keep pushing this narrative hard but then don’t respond to my evidence of the contrary. What am I supposed to do when someone keeps affirming a serious accusation of pedophilia? I’m either a “pedophile apologist” or “willing to die on this hill”.

The paper you linked to is about urgent problem of misogyny in the computer science field at MIT, not just directly at Stallman. I do not understand how that proves his misogyny how that makes him a misogynist now?

It’s not “old blog posts”, engage with the fact that he has different opinions now and that his blog post was always a personal avenue for him that is majority about social/climate advocacy.

Dude, he’s like anti-cop.

Stop doing pedo apologia

Again with the accusations of rms being a pedophile or supporting pedophilia. How do you expect me to respond to that?

I don’t know why anyone would die on the hill of defending a now completely irrelevant guy, who is very likely a pedo, just because they did some good software things like 40 years ago.

It’s statements like these that remind me that I’m not going crazy. You have shown to me that you don’t give a shit outside of whatever is on the social bandwagon.

You casually accuse RMS with pedophilia (assuredly based on decades old blogposts now recanted), you minimize all his contributions to stuff “40 years ago” and you claim that he’s completely irrelevant today.

How is anyone supposed to respond to you except with an echochamber?
