It's a bit disapointing when you have a very good multiplatform ecosystem to see stuff like that, sometimes it's people "forgetting" there's also windows (and I can get that), but some other times it's just a big "fuck you windows user".
- jcbrand 12y agoThe general sentiment has been "fuck you linux user" for so long now, it's funny to see how things have changed in the last 15 years or so.
- Guillaume86 12y agoI'm not sure what precisly you're referring to (proprietary software/drivers?), I love linux, used it almost exclusively for 5 years before my current .NET job. I'm talking here about pure javascript npm packages, something you can legitimatly expect to be able to build on windows and yet some people make childish judgements on windows users and choose tools which exclude a part of the community (not always the case or the reason but it happens). On a similar subject, I stopped counting the times I've seen someone get told to get a Mac when discussing a problem on cross platform tools.
