    I’ve seen this a couple of times on reddits r/all front page

    People like to say that lemmy is a better alternative or much more different with its userbase than reddit but I’ll say that’s rather the opersite it’s got pretty much the same userbase from reddit plus alot of people whom have been banned which makes the stuff you do see here alot less welcoming and alot more poloarising it alot of the content I see on all is tankie or extreme alt left memes I get comedy is subjective and all but me personally im surprised anyone finds any those memes funny most unfunny memes I’ve seen in my life and reposts like this sprinkled in with a shit ton of rage bait news articles

    You can take a redditor from reddit but you can’t take the reddit out of the redditor

      This strip isn’t supposed to be funny, and your assessment of platform demographics was unnecessary and completely unrelated to the topic at hand.

          Also forgot I’m also mentioning the fact that alot of the posts on lemmy are very low quality or very political lemmy is essentially reddit lite or knock off reddit I think something like this can work and have some success but only if it’s done well and well executed currently I don’t think many people would like to move over to lemmy due to the unwelcoming nature of its users

            I get your frustration, but “criticizing Linux” while you’re visibly having a known Steam issue is kind of weird. Not saying you’re not having the issues, and I understand why you went back instead of dealing with it, but are you “criticizing Windows” when some other piece of third-party software bugs out too?

            Agreed though, the Linux community has a very vocal, very annoying and rather elitist component which doesn’t help the reputation…

            Well that’s interesting I’ve never experienced that before but then again its been awhile since i mained linux just going to say this are you sure you haven’t checked updated and uninstalled drivers and also prehaps checked to see if its a hardware issue maybe worked your way through some troubleshooting guides maybe

                Look I’m not going lie lol i have no idea what is going on here mate all I’m going say is good luck mate linux can be janky as fuck but when you get shit running well custom rice all your programs running well it’s perfecto and well worth the time and effort

                Although if you don’t have the time or effort to go though all this then just use windows whatever works for you mate check our tiny10 if I were you

            I’ve noticed that Steam for Windows displays download speed in mbit/s while the Linux client displays it in mbyte/s, although both display the unit as mb/s. This is a setting that can be toggled. This doesn’t account for the entire difference (1887mbit > 109mbyte) but is one contributing factor.
