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.

Some people mind. 🤷♂️ You do realize more people other than yourself exist in the world, right?
I personally couldn't care less. But I also recognize that CodeBerg has every right to police their own platform in whichever way they see fit. If they don't want this kind of shit on their platform because their users disagree with it, then all the more power to them.
Honestly lil bro, you lack emotional intelligence.
That was the personal insult. It was unnecessary and I'm not sure why you figure you needed to say that.
This, again, is my point. A puerile ethnic slur (I didn't read it closely but I think that's what it was) by provocateur spammers is cause for a big song and dance of solemn apologies and ostentatious contrition. But your personal insult lobbed against me is apparently fine. This is the modern value system that I don't understand and don't want to be part of, personally.
It's not a personal insult. I'm objectively pointing out that your emotional intelligence is low, considering you're seemingly incapable of understanding that some people mind slurs, and services have every right to police their own platforms...
He never insulted you... wtf
