From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't understand why so many people take the existence of linuxsucks communities so personally, the reddit version has more linux users defending it than actual hate, but that one was more meant as a "legitimate grievances against linux" community as opposed to what the lemmy version seems to be.
Just block and ignore like anything else. Its okay if there are people that don't like the thing you like.
I didn't take it personally, just confused and amused at the situation

Damn, the down votes. People really don't get sarcasm on the internet eh?
