This person banned me too. I think the post was like Linus Torvalds explaining some of the shortcomings of linux… in 2010. I observed the simple fact that this video was almost 15 years old and that literally every single problem Linus identified at the time has either been completely solved or major progress has been made. I said that this was dishonest and tended to discredit his own position. He deleted my comment without acknowledgement and banned me for subversion.
This person is clearly not acting in good faith. This person is not making an onion: there’s no farce or satire, and the nearest approach to humor seems to be the fact of the theme of the community. I don’t get the impression they are laughing along with these would-be jokes. I looked into the community’s post history, and it seems they were doing really well a while ago. I looked at those submissions and most were completely different: They were ironic, making light of linux’ known definite shortcomings. Also, they were usually at least a little bit funny. I eventually found the subreddit of the same name which is intended to be ironic and funny and tongue-in-cheek apparently (and allows people of all opinions to participate). In other words, this person took the idea of a subreddit, stripped it of its context, irony, humor, and community interaction, and is confused why people don’t upvote their content anymore.
On review of the community content, it seems that the majority of content posted recently is dishonest or misleading in some way. Unsurprisingly, this content seems to be original. On review of the modlog, it seems the majority of bans are for subversion.
I rule this person a confused Power Tripping Bastard.
I don’t use this word often because I think it can have negative connotations I don’t intend, but the English language doesn’t have a better word I can think of right now. They are a fucking pussy. To clarify I meant that idiot mod.
