Not shown: The top 0.05% - "Use whichever distro you're satisfied with. The different distributions exist to offer choice, not to compete."

Seriously... At SCaLE this year I saw people from various distro booths taking breaks and visiting other distro booths. Each time they looked genuinely interested and excited about what the other distro was doing.

Seriously: this non-competitive behavior in the FOSS community is soo fucking refreshing!

[-] Pan_Ziemniak@midwest.social 35 points 7 months ago

Almost like humans find cooperation is healthier than competition on the whole...

FOSS til i die, please.

My God I love Lemmy. Finding a Kropotkin quote in the wild? Outside of an anarchists sub? Without specifically searching for it?

It makes me feel less alone. Thank you.

Glad to be able to quote it and receive so much positive feedback :)

Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
