Yes. There was also brutal infighting, scantly clad images of minors being protected by a cabal of disgusting moderators, including Spez and not to mention the doxxing. Lots of that too.

Almost forgot. They spoofed fake users to make the site appear more popular than it was.

I get it but I picked Mint not only for my recommendation to new users but the platform I advocate the most for on my YouTube channel. For anyone who isn’t computer savvy there isn’t a more straightforward and easy to use distro. If we want to grow the Linux community we have to be open to users with extremely limited knowledge regarding computing in general.

This does mean hand holding people through a setup even if there is a guide available. That’s my goal with my channel. To spread FOSS awareness and to show people how easy it is to make the switch to an overall better computer experience.

The internet used to be so much more open. Now we all congregate on like a handful of sites.

One of the best things about browsing the web as a kid was a new website to find. They were all different because there were no standards. Some were an absolute mess and some were straight up art.

Not to mention all the little hidden gems people would stick around these sites as Easter Eggs. It as so much fun. These days it’s all business as usual 😑

I particularly hated the anime. It just straight cringe for me. The difference between Nagatoro and Rent a Girlfriend is the main character has growth. Like he actually learns from his interactions and does something with it.

No, the dude from rent a girlfriend learns nothing and constantly makes his own situation worse with his own actions. It stopped being funny after a few minutes.
