I mean, if you have nothing of value to say, why even make a comment? Just block me and move on, mate.
Or, I don't know, engage and tell say why you think this comment was stupid?
I'll gladly take over. The statement is stupid because it is already well known across the board that Microsoft is, by all intents and purposes, a malware developer. The Linux kernel on the other hand, and therefore Linux distros (most of them anyway), by being open source, at least give you the ability to look at the code and see if something IA broken, assuming you have the knowledge and the will, evidently.
Now, blocking you when you're evidently on Lemmy to spread misinformation, be it of your own will or because you were planted (irrelevant) would be a disservice to people that come in here to interact in ways that may help them escape the grasp big tech and governments currently have on them.
This is not Twitter (or X) where most people just follow the "normy" trends. In here most of us are all too aware of moat of the truth out there, and keep digging ro help each other have the best life we can in these technologically dark times.
So, if you don't want your easily disproven bullshit comments countered and being downvoted to the point that people will just scroll past your shit, you're going ro have ro block us. Otherwise, keep them coming, any of us will knock down your sheep-like pushes with sound logic and facts each and every time. Of course, if your comments are accurate, they will be upvoted as well. Cause and effect, you know?
Hahahahahaha, and you call my comments "stupid"? XD
OK, I'm not even reading the rest, mate. I get it! I really do - "Microsoft bad!", that's all there is to it for you. There's no discussion to be had here, unless someone is also a member of the cult, and then everyone can chant "Microsoft bad! Microsoft bad!".
Weak sauce, mate. Cheers!
How many more people need to tell you exactly why your comments are 'stupid'? I also think your comments are stupid, but more than that, I think you're planted here to throw dirt on open source software in an attempt to lead people to big tech (which is a waste of time on your part).
Like my fellow Lemmy smart users here, your comments also piss me off, just a bit, but there's going ro be some people here that are looking for reasons and ways to get away from MS, Google, Apple and all other bullshit malware and spyware corporations, and I want to be able to counter bullshit like yours by clarifying how wrong those are and why, so blocking you is not the beat course of action for me. You are, however, welcome to block me, and I will stop following your ill-intended comments to counter them then.
You have no idea how hilarious this sounds aimed at a Linux user. :D
But I learned to expect nothing else from this community! :D
XD
And yet you replied again...
