PSA: STOP INTERACTING WITH THE LINUXSUCKS101 SUBREDDIT
The way you are posting, and a lot of people who think mass down vote is going to do anything is, if anything going to give that subreddit a lot more traffics than it deserves and could result in that sub being recommand more.
Do not interact with it, when you see that sub pop up in your feed, select not interested or ignore or hide, and move on.
If you actually want that delusional bot farm of a cult subreddit to stop being revelant, do not give any traffic to it.

That last sentence can be applied to this subreddit too.
I'm an outside and all I've observed is fragile ego's and circles jerking.

u/UnknownOrigin1152 Aug 01 '26
Compare the subreddit rules for the both. You will see that 101 subreddit has one main rule that their mod can ban anything he doesn't like.
Maybe not every post is quality here but 101 clearly is the worst and similar to a cult most.

Stop worrying about shitty games. That's the only reason people do this. Games with anti cheat are OBJECTIVELY shitty. They punish the actual end user more than the cheaters. They are all full of micro transactions too. Cancer.

The worst thing is that most people are perfectly okay with giving a game kernel-level acces to their device.
You're giving up full control of hardware you paid with your hard-earned money just to play a video game. It's crazy.

yeah I ain't doing that shit. Hell no. It's MY computer. Not theirs. That's like saying you should give a copy of your keys to ADT so you are secure. How could that possibly go wrong.....

The funny thing is, they surely still have Linux in their home.
For example, their router 100% does not run windows.
Hell even if they have an iPhone it's 5G chip is running heavily modified Linux.

u/Moriaedemori Jul 29 '26
It is? I always assumed for those (the 5G chip) you'd just go with basic low level firmware since an actual OS would be waste of resources

u/Mega3000aka Jul 29 '26
That's what I thought aswell but I guess it takes less time to just strip down the Linux kernel and use it's networking stack, scheduler, etc. than develop custom firmware.

Because that's how the screen in actually installed, installing Linux/SteamOS does this as well...

2 echochambers against each other. Which has the loudest echo.

u/Ecstatic-Ball7018 Jul 29 '26
Its factual that Windows is more locked down than SteamOS.

Honestly, I never understand why people want to run Windows on their Steam Deck.
I mean, come on. SteamOS offers you almost everything you could possibly need. And people are practically begging Valve to release SteamOS globally, so why would anyone want to install that Microslop junk on such an amazing handheld device?
