Yeah and you know what? Fuck that, I work hard on my stupid little comments, even check spelling and shit, so when I come back and what I see? 6 upvotes? That's like twice as much than when I was still on reddit! Normally I would get one, from myself. So thank you very much, I appreciate it!

Go into any programming community and post that you prefer Windows to Linux.

Go to any hexbear instance and say just about anything that might have nuance or critical thought.

Which ones have they been? The Chinese nationalist larping as communists or the teenage edgelords cosplaying as centrist Twitter samurai?

If you're feeling lonely, just say some controversial shit and nerds will swarm to argue with you

Here's my opinion on why your wrong. Windows is full of trackers that gather your telemetry (anonymously but if you piss off bill gates he will send you a screenshot of all the porn you watched) which tells Microsoft things like when you take a shit and how many minorities you dislike. Next is performance because Windows runs like hot garbage on low tier computers. Your $400 HP laptop comes with Windows? Well enjoy 20 minutes of loading when you boot that bad boy up and even Microsoft Office will struggle. Settings in Windows are all fucked up because Steve Gates can't decide on where shit goes so now you have TWO that's right TWO settings menus, one that's your classic control panel and the other that's old people proof even though old people can't work out how to open the start menu let alone change a setting. Finally there's the ads which are annoying as shit. You start up your shitbox of a PC which takes twenty minutes and your greeted with "oh you should buy gamepass lmao. That's why I use Linux. Linux is the best operating system. You download it, install it, mess it up somehow and Install it again. Why I love the fact that only some distros gather telemetry (idk which ones lmao) and the fact that there's 20 billion different operating systems to choose from built useing Linux with varying degrees of quality. And no matter what you get you'll still end up using the terminal to fix your shitty drivers. Personally I love Temple OS. Temple OS is written in holy C

My problem is that when I log in and have 10+ notifications I think “oh no what did I say” and then never check them.

But it's only been 1 minute since you last checked because you struggle with ADHD and the instant happy chemicals are more important than completing actually important tasks.

I like it that way.

If I log in and see 5+ I immediately think "oh god what could I have said now..."

When you return to Lemmy and there are no new posts because you left 10 seconds ago.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Throw a post up in asklemmy before you go to sleep and you'll always wake up with a coupla replies.

The children yearn for the mines; the lemmings yearn for the questions.

Just write some "unpopular" comment and a lot of people will be there for you.

Just tell everyone you're a socialist. That usually does it for me.

just go to one of the more tense instances and say capitalism good/capitalism bad and you'll have more than enough.

Or if you're feeling really brave write a comment about why veganism is correct literally anywhere.
