When someone replies to this and says 'stop making everything political' they mean to tell you to stop challenging the status quo (lemmy.world)

I mean, depending on how much you value privacy and the virtues of FOSS…maybe not directly political, but I’m sure some correlations could be made.

Every single time a gripe about privacy is brought up on Lemmy or some issue with iOS or Windows, Linux users come out of the woodwork. It is 100% political as privacy becomes more and more of a concern.

Everything is political. My poli sci teacher said it best: when you boil it down, politics in the most simplest terms is just getting things done.

Especially Linux distro! Now, give me a pulseaudio snap package for my Unity desktop.
