@mdhughes but you are presuming that other users have the same requirements as you.

To take but one example - almost none of the people I know who use linux use twitter on the desktop. Why would you do that? That's not what a desktop is for. The few that do use it through bitlbee.

A torrent downloader, likewise, is a tool. Mine doesn't even have a UI, it sits on a headless server.

I'm not even getting into your nonsensical comments about LibreOffice. Don't like it? Don't fecking use it.

@mdhughes yes, it is a good solution:

• It is affordable for people living in disadvantage.
• It doesn't require an internet to use it.
• It provides a feature-set complete enough that people can run businesses on it.
• It does all this with a fraction of the developer spend and reach of Microsoft and other tech-privileged companies.

Again, just because you don't like the look of something, you don't get to determine that "Its shit" for everyone.

@mdhughes Civil? When have I been uncivil?

Oh, is this the new Civil 2.0 nonsense which means "Accept that I am correct and offer no countervailing opinion while I continue to insult and belittle other people ad nauseum"?

@mdhughes

In the last few responses and posts you have:

• Called all Linux users "Rich white nerds"
• Stated there are no "poor people" in the 1st World
• Conversely, stated that the entire population of the non-1st world are poor people
• Stated that everyone not in the 1st World pirates software
• Called Linus Torvalds "an incompetent bozo" apropos of nothing at all.
• Described all Linux devs as people who "suck goat anuses"
• Described me as having a "horrific anti-user attitude" based on a deliberate misinterpretation of a comment, used (of course) out of context.

I'd say "Check your privilege" but I'd be afraid of triggering you.
