Seriously? It's a social media site that openly support and spread right-wing misinformation, how is that comparable? People have no say in where they where born, and not all have the luxury of packing everything and move to another country, supporting a social media site is a choice.

No but apparently you don't think that it is that big of a deal?

At this point in time, anyone left on the platform formerly known as Twitter, is either a fascist, or at least think that fascism isn't that big a deal.

I have an old Huawei P7, and when it breaks, I will not buy a Chinese phone again, and it's not because of price or quality.

I don't like how China is helping Russia invade Ukraine, and for that alone, I won't support a Chinese company, I used to buy a lot of components in china, now I get them local or from another EU country.

It’s still around and kicking unresponsive windows.

I know, but I haven't used it since I switched to Debian ;-)

I was still using XP when Ubuntu 5.10 was released, and when I saw my audio worked out of the box, I switched :-) I had been using Mandrake Linux (since 1999) but only for servers and other work related stuff.

I love my Pinephone, not enough to use it as my main phone thou.

It's running Mobian, mostly because everything else I have is running Debian in some form, but it looks like the largest project is PostmarketOS.

Not sure if it qualify as distrohopping, but for a long time I tried to test every major Linux distro release, and they all had problems with sound, but when Ubuntu 5 came out everything worked out of the box, so I switched my desktop to Linux. A couple of years later, Ubuntu began some introducing some (IMO) questionable things, so I tested the main distros again and landed on Debian, most of all because I knew the system relatively well from Ubuntu.

The first desktop distro I tried was Mandrake (back in 1998), but since I use my desktop for making music, it was just too much work every time I wanted to record something back then.

As for servers, I have always just used what the customer wanted or had, and for most parts it was Red hat.
