Should there be a Linux comm on hexbear? (hexbear.net)

@makotech222@hexbear.net made a really good thread to help people deal with windows 11. I learned from it.

A bunch of people started posting about Linux in that thread.

Sometimes a good judge of if there’s enough interest to have a community is if people are talking about it in threads where it’s off topic.

Would it help to have a Linux comm?

Some people are just terminally windows brained and refuse to even consider other options. I had someone on here awhile ago tell me saying people shouldn't use Windows was victim blaming.

my hot take is that windows ppl are like non-vegans: Keep it to yourself and we wont have a problem,but if you start doing anti-FOSS propaganda people are going to be all over that and you shouldn't be surprised
