It wins by default but only because I never liked the Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky-like infinitely scrolling threads and only use Discord to follow some artists.

The fandom takes cosplay and immersion very seriously.

Others have answered, but I'll say it anyway.

The name paracetamol is used in most of the world, and by the WHO. Acetaminophen is the adopted name in the United States, Canada, and Japan. US pharmacies also use APAP. The most common trade names are Tylenol and Panadol. They all refer to the same stuff.

They can tell us whatever they like. They are financially incentivized to find a scapegoat, which takes away their credibility completely. The fact is that Respawn has had a massive cheater and hacker infestation ever since the days of Titanfall 1 and continuing with Titanfall 2 and Apex. It's been an issue for longer than Linux gaming has been a factor, and smearing it on one part of the playerbase will do fuck all to resolve the deeply seated issues with Respawn's shitty software.

Fuck EA and fuck Respawn.

Regular use also fucks up your organs. Paracetamol (Tylenol) kills your liver, and ibuprofen kills your kidneys.

I ran through all of the posts. Literally the community's entire timeline. I've found four that wasn't just an edited meme or stock photo, and none that invited an honest, good-faith discussion of why Linux sucks.

Don't get me wrong, there are lots of areas where Linux and the Linux ecosystem suck. As a Linux user myself, and as an admin with a dozen outdated Ubuntu systems foisted upon me, I'll be the first to point and laugh. At this point I've stopped watching sitcoms because nothing compares to the wayland development dumpster fire, for example.

But this ain't it, chief. Most of the posts here fall into the same category as The Big Bang Theory: trying to emulate a culture in order to mock and caricaturize it, but without understanding the culture, and falling flat on its face. Don't kid yourself: this is a meme sub, and not a particularly funny one either. The moment you stop posting them, engagement will drop like a rock.

(before grabbing that ban hammer, do note that I've complied with both points on the sidebar)

You're missing the part where GNOME single-handedly holds back the development of Wayland and fuck things up for everyone with their "no server-side decorations" policy: https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-408

Clearly they're the managers who told the devs to break all of your extensions.
