"Linux Mint hides the terminal"
*immediately opens terminal to demonstrate*
I did not see this coming.
Haven't watched pewdiepie in years, glad to see he's still entertaining.
I wonder what he did to optimise his Firefox startup time.
Probably used some flag file like BetterFox in about:config
holy shit this is massive news
I'm so happy for him. He seems so excited about Linux and has done much more customization than I have XD
Uh oh, brace for the hordes of people complaining that some anticheat game doesn't work on Linux and therefore the whole thing sucks.
Maybe he doesn't play any Multiplayer games (anymore) so why should he care. But yeah I also missed that part since some big games could make problems like Fortnite or GTA V MP?
I honestly don't care about PewDiePie, I care more about his audience. And his audience is bound to expect everything to work if PewDiePie advocates for it, even if he explicitly tells them to temper their expectations. That's just how gamers are.
Isn't this guy Nazi adjacent?
Tasteless, immature, edgelord, yes. Actual fascist/Nazi, I don't think so. I've never really watched his content. And I will say this. From what I've seen in recent years, he seems to have matured a bit.
I haven't found him tastless in a long while. He seems to just be vibing living his own life at this point.
That's generally my understanding as well at this point. That and he's had a child. And seems to be making a somewhat serious attempt at parenting. And perhaps starting to look at a lot of this stuff through the eyes of a father
Having a kid/kids really does change a man. Or person. In many ways.
Yes it absolutely can. Here's hoping he continues down that path.
Same. He really does seem a lot more chill nowadays since I last checked him out. Never was a follower but you can clearly see a difference between a single video like 5-10 years ago and this now.
The bar for matured for someone with his history should be higher, especially in todays world.
Like making a video speaking against alt right edgelords and Nazis.
I didn't say he was mature. I said he's matured a little bit. I absolutely agree he should probably make some decent public apologies for the stupid s*** he's done / said. But by the same token. When people do make progress no matter how small it is we can acknowledge it.
What's with his history?
Used the n-word on stream, promoted alt-right content, and some other racist shit.... Google it for details.
Quite frankly, Nazi-adjacent is bad enough, especially when he's made no effort to own up to the problems he's caused. It seems like he very deliberately tries to skirt the line of plausible deniability.
I agree. That said he has shown some small signs of maturing. Hopefully someday he will do that. I agree it's needed. I have a feeling as a young parent he's going to learn all about imitatable acts. And hopefully he will understand and think better about them.
He did a video shouting out 10 lesser known youtube channels that he liked and it turned out one guy who did movie reviews or something had some antisemetic social media posts.
turned out one guy who did movie reviews
something had some antisemetic social media posts.
Ok so it was anime reviews not movies. Nothing in that holds any factual information different to what i said, it just frames it aggressively.
The second was part of a video showing off fiverr. The guys he paid made a business of writing whatever outrageous stuff people wanted on a sign and posing with it. He had them write something outrageous on a sign and pose with it.
The mans uploaded thousands of videos as the most watched youtube channel on the planet. Any mistake hes made is easy carrion for vultures to farm outrage off of.
The important thing is that hes apologized and redacted any content and statements that could be construed as racism or bigotry, and has clearly stated repeatedly that thats not what he believes.
In the current political climate when the twitch is openly antisemetic and news networks (fox) are calling for genocide, i wouldnt take that for granted.
Screw that guy.
Why? He's like the best big time youtuber and isn't shitty
Because he's a racist shithead.
I've never heard of this before, would you enlighten me?
He's said and done a lot of antisemitic things and spread Nazi ideology.

Much like Mr Beast and other top YouTubers, he only cares about himself and has used controversies of other YouTubers to try to take the spotlight off the fucked up things he's done.

Well fuck me
I feel lucky that I never got into his content. I heard so much about him as a kid, and I only recently started hearing about the Nazi stuff.
If you don't know what he did, I have a specific gamer word and bridge in PUBG that I need to introduce you to
At least for me its not important what kind of person he is.
I quite like that a very influental person in the gaming sphere promotes linux gaming.
Because more users means more content and support
I don’t know what to say except I’m sorry you’re ok with that kind of behavior.
They didn't say they're okay with their behavior, they said they appreciate promoting Linux, because more people using Linux is a good thing for all Linux users.
