@cobra @thor right now in our world, things like abortion are way more important than "I can see code"

@Jessica Reactionary stuff like abortion bans (oversimplified, but let's call it that) happens when society loses control of the state. Surveillance facilitates that and free software helps fight surveillance to some extent. So it's all connected. In a way.
But yes, fanaticism rarely helps the cause. Any fanaticism and any cause really.
@thor @cobra

@Jessica Okay. But attacking some guy who thinks free software is important would most certainly help with abortions. Good luck with that πŸ˜†
@thor @cobra

@m0xee @thor @cobra it's a bad take
foss means nothing if people don't care, and most people don't

@Jessica
That is true.
I don't know, maybe there is some backstory to this, but thread looks like the perfect example of what you say is wrong.
Maybe those who preach free software are annoying, but original post sounds reasonable.
And you make a comment like "Your priorities are all wrong!"
Isn't is kind of the same? 🀷

@Jessica
I already agreed with that.
Original post was nothing like "Windows is bad, use free software!!!", it just pointed out that using derogatory term is wrong. And you are like "No, your priorities are wrong!".
Isn't that exactly what "FOSSbros" do? πŸ˜‰
