Rather not about this guy. If you look at his beginning remarks he literally just insulted anyone who uses macos. That's why I decided to say this stuff to him.

Talk about being rude and closed minded. So there's no point to be charitable with this guy, I'll make the narrowest stereotype and see if it sticks. It likely does..that's the sad part.

My advice for you is to learn to read subtlety in this conversation. The guy I'm responding to hates macOS with a passion and he thinks anyone who doesn't agree with him is stupid.

Or maybe you're that way too? I hope not. Then my advice for you would be the same as my advice to him. Understand why the majority of developers use MacBooks stop looking down on other developers like your some kind of superior ass hole.

Linux is an altruistic force in this world. Being against it is like being against the Salvation Army.

If I had the money to purchase a Mac growing up, probably that would have been my choice. Instead, I assembled my own computer from parts, and upgrading the computer incrementally by adding and replacing components.

For you, if you don't have money to buy a mac, you are no longer a human being worth of respect. That tells me all I need to know.

Nobody is against Linux. The problem is worshipping Linux like some kind of god. And then stepping on those who don't agree with your viewpoint. Linux is one force, among many.

>For you, if you don't have money to buy a mac, you are no longer a human being worth of respect. That tells me all I need to know.

This is just random, and a bit too far. It has nothing to do with someones humanity. It does for you though, because like I said, you fit that stereotype.

I mainly use nixOS with hyprland. I also own a mac and a windows PC.

>If I had the money to purchase a Mac growing up, probably that would have been my choice. Instead, I assembled my own computer from parts, and upgrading the computer incrementally by adding and replacing components.

Usually this profile I'm talking about fits someone who desperately wants to be seen as smart and identifies with that. Your zealotry has a different origin. But it doesn't excuse it. If you're no longer poor you should break out of that mold. Software developers need to get paid. The money needs to come from somewhere. Free time costs money as it's someones' salary that pays for leisure time to work on open source software. If you follow that trail you will see that something like linux would not exist if it weren't for closed source software.

Ah, the stereotypes again. You are angry at a person that only exists on your mind, the reviled snobbish vim and Linux user that looks down on you each time you use a mouse. Since that person only exists in your mind, try talking to that imaginary person and figure your problems out.

it's you is it not? I think I'm spot on as you haven't said anything otherwise.

My description fits you perfectly.

I have nothing against vim. I use it on the daily. I have vim bindings on my ide too.

The imaginary person is the one you're making up. You think I hate Linux and you think I use macOS exclusively.

I'm primarily a Linux user.

[29athrowaway]

OK, so: you use Linux, you use vim, you look down on others... the person you have been hating throughout this thread is no other than yourself.

I do not fit the description of the person you are insulting.

[corethree]

Like I said, I'm past the point of believing anything you say. I think you do fit, I don't think you're honest.

I didn't like you because of your attitude towards people who used operating systems other then linux. It's as simple as that.

As a linux user I despise the holier than thou attitude from certain other people who use linux.

Don't see any subtlety with two broad brushes painting in angry colors. When you accuse others of arrogance, don't let yours run rampant.
