It is a good thing you can use Google chrome instead which has zero contributors with stances you disagree with... I guess.

Wow! What a shock and a bummer, I've been a fan for a long time.

I went to my bank with all my ID and my bank card, talked to the teller and was told to call a support line. One of my parents went through the same thing.

I don't have a citation for you just recent experience, do you have a citation?

Do you block ipv4? Either way it is used by the majority of the 'real' internet still and for many years to come.

They had a 2008 Honda which was damaged and bought a new Toyota which has modern issues. Did you read their comment at all?

Yes, The Communist Party of China does indeed do some capitalistic things as well as communist things.

China is a communist country doing plenty of bad stuff, stop shilling. Winnie the Pooh does hide under my bed though.

They are run by 'The Communist Party of China' and they certainly act communist, stop shilling.

Because they are a communist country aligned with Russia.

Consistent ZFS tooling around the OS and ZFS support out of the box, which always works.

Why should Canadians trust CIRA over anything else? I guess it is probably better than using your stock ISP DNS.

Us peasants cannot stop this, Canada will roll this out soon also, its being rammed through no matter what people feel.

This is basically just shilling. Average Canadians cannot point to many things that have improved or gotten cheaper in how many years? You are acting like we are a day away from being a debt free hyper economy that everyone is knocking on the door to get involved with.

'I'm saying that their reputation should be reviewed negatively if they "create a distribution to solve a problem that has no reason to be solve by creating a distribution".'

Why? People can do as they wish and you can use it or not.

"It is understandable to be frustrated at a project without technical merit gaining so much traction"

Not really, seems kinda weird to be frustrated by an opensource project that people have decided to build a community around.

When POPos was just an Ubuntu fork with a few gnome extensions and a better nvidia installer, I guess you were upset it got traction also? Or is their enhanced nvidia bash script enough of technical merit to appease your righteous stance.

I wonder how you feel about a sponsored Kubuntu conference, you must look at the idea with disgust.
