Your point was that users can use arch install scripts to automate some of the setup process.

I countered by saying they could just use a distro that has an installer integrated directly into it.

I also added that in your mind, there is no legitimate reason to use an arch derivative. This highlights your bias.

What was I missing, exactly?

Or just use a distro that sets everything up for you.

Seems like anything is the solution except that in your mind, lol.

Glad we have option 😎

Thought Arch was all about DIY?

None, but bugs stick around way longer in debian stable because of how old the software is.

Did you… really think I was talking about a bugless distro?

Problem with debian is it’s stable in the sense of unchanging, not necessarily a lack of bugs.

He’s saying he wants up to date packages and stability, which seems to mean he was current software without bugs. That’s not debian stable.

You’re right, but when spreading FUD it helps to have some concrete examples. Otherwise it just looks like you’re going off of emotion. It’s a dangerous path to go down, but a lot of people have no problem walking it.

What are you talking about? If users are okay with giving up that information then that’s their choice.

Stop being patronizing and condescending just because people don’t care about the things you do. It’s very childish.

He’s not giving any examples, just vague nothingness that can apply to anything.

🥱

You didn’t say anything of substance.

Bro. It’s a public forum. What ‘digital privacy’ are you talking about?

You didn’t say anything of substance.

No they aren’t. Users literally do not have the power to choose which instances they see. They have to rely on their instance admins or make their own instance.

Yay censorship and users not being able to make decisions for themselves!

Yay emotions!

Sounds like discrimination based on sex. A clear violation of the Civil Rights act of 1964.

Dang, that’s lame. I guess it’s up to users to adapt LO to their distro.

Good can be nice. This is just him personally and shouldn’t be seen as a guideline on how to be good.
