      I use and love many flavors of Linux, but Windows and macOS are honestly cool too and I use all of them on a daily basis. It’s just cringey to me when people get all dumb and elitist about Linux.

      • I agree the post is cringe, my brain somehow just thought I’d make a dry slightly related remark (context below) and it ended up sounding a bit too serious.

        The context was that I’ve seen quite a few angry/troll posts elsewhere on this instance recently complaining there are too many Linux communities on here, and I found this post to be the other extreme.

      Or people who don’t want to see low effort meme content. There’s a community specifically for that sort of thing and Linux. [email protected]

      Lemmy.one doesn’t allow downvoting though, so I didn’t downvote it, but I sure as heck didn’t upvote it.

        Huh? I thought that it only applies to posts on your instance and not all the interactions that users of this instance can do. Am I wrong?

          Nope, as a Lemmy.One user, I cannot downvote anywhere. It’s probably my only complaint with Lemmy.One, actually. I’m not sure I would have downvoted this, but it is the type of thing I don’t want to see.

          No, looks like it’s a global setting. If your instance doesn’t allow it, you’re not allowed to downvote anywhere.

              No, that’s what I was trying to explain. If downvotes are disabled on your instance, you can’t downvote anything anywhere on any instance.

                I’m asking for the opposite, if your instance allows you to downvote stuff then can you downvote stuff that’s on instances that don’t allow them?
