Saw a post without noticing the community and commented a genuine comment with good intentions.

Apparently it was against the rules of that community and I was banned.

My (removed) comment:

And yeah, the last comment was sarcasm.

I just don’t really understand why is there a community for shitting on Linux? Like I can get not liking it, and hating the Linux die hard fans, but it really is an amazing thing that is integral to almost all modern computing… Kind of like hating social media by having a facebook page for it.

    Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

    Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

    Most people would roll their eyes and move on

    Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

    and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

    Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by
