As an aside, I'm going through some of "theEvilSkeleton's" writings (who I presume isn't you since you're using a throwaway, even though you have a very similar writing style) in an effort to better understand their viewpoint. I won't enumerate the various points that I disagree with, but I will note one thing.
In the "why hasn't the linux desktop won" post, they (presumably not you) say
>Without a doubt, systemd was (and still is) one of the most controversial projects in the Linux desktop. This is because its creator, Lennart Poettering, is known to have many controversial positions on the Linux ecosystem and UNIX philosophy.
Which is... pretty much completely missing the point, and rather showing their bias. The reason why systemd is controversial is because it was made by someone who makes controversial decisions? That's the worst kind of tautology.
Like it's a really bad piece of logic, and is makes for some very bad persuasive writing. I'm saying this not to attack theEvilSkeleton, just it stood out as a really big example of clear bias to the point where I felt the need to bring it up.
- QUrprUd1nCeicw 4y agoThat's not bias it's just bad writing. You could say there is bias if it was ever explained what the controversy was but it wasn't explained in that quote. If you think that's bad, you should see some of the really terrible incoherent anti-systemd and anti-GNOME rants I've seen over the years, that are completely riddled with insults and conspiracy theories. Please do your best to not be like that kind of ranting person.
