    Lol the pirate party in the country I’m from was co opted by Nazis

    Edit: Why would any one downvote this lol it’s factually true. I’m not saying Pewdipie is a nazi, I’m just stating the facts that the pirate party was co opted by Nazis in the country I’m from and basically had to disband.

        Well in the post the OP stated that Pewdiepie was a supporter of the pirate party as if this negated any claims to him being right wing. I just wanted to point out that the pirate party can have right wing elements as was the case here.

        Edit I’m not trying to be a dick but what did adding that statement at the bottom of the post have to do with pewdiepie using Linux?

    Geeez these comments guys…

    So even if you like or dislike pewdiepie. I think him showing of Linux is good. Getting more people to realize Linux exist and is a viable alternative to Windows or Mac is a good thing.

      I agree. As more regular people use Linux, it will become more obvious who the gatekeeping losers are and why they should be routinely ignored.

      “Think different” to me is “don’t let the people chronically on internet forums dictate your every move.”

    I for one am very happy to see! He is a great influence to a lot of people and showing that Linux isn’t scary will boost numbers by a solid amount ✌️

    Does Hyprland work well for gaming compared to KDE? Can it do HDR, VRR and so on?

    Always wanted to try a tiling WM but was afraid of losing features.

    Awesome! I hope he will help share this with more folks, the friends who I’ve talked into finally giving modern non-Ubuntu Linux a shot love it, but there’s a lot of work to get over the damaged image created by the countless “linux user installing a browser” memes. I’m sure someone with his reach can help though :)

    Cool setup. I used to customise my setup long back but this gave me some inspiration to try again

      He’s an attention-seeking edgelord and a buffoon, but I highly doubt the Nazi allegations. This comes from someone who genuinely believes in the right to punch Nazis. We need to be careful about throwing the Nazi-card in all directions, or the real ones will slip through the cracks (some have already managed to skip into positions of power while us plebs are squabbling). He did a couple of insanely stupid things that he should have grown out of by age 15, hopefully he learned from that.

        Well, I see the problem now. Punching people doesn’t solve Nazism.

        If you were advocating for reeducating them, revoking their right to vote, or even putting them in prison, fine. But punching people is just some weird power fantasy, “I’m better than you because I beat you up.”

        The fact you think beating people up just to feel dominant or whatever is good politics shows you have a lot in common with Pewds… and, well, Nazis.

      How about you being ashamed about parroting unbased allegations. PewDiePie never showed significant evidence he is a Nazi and transphobic. The two mistakes he did in his 1000ands hours of content he apologized and condemned the behavior.

        The words nazi and transphobe have lost their meaning because of how much hysterical people have used them when they’re not applicable.

      That was over half a decade ago. In the meantime he has spent time bettering himself and being a decent person.

            He was already 29 or 30 back then. Obviously you can grow to be a better person even when you are a grown ass man but definately a different situation when people do stupid stuff in their teenage years. It makes you question that was it genuine or did he do it to secure his income.

              So like, the older I get the more I realize the myth of the mature adult is just that, a myth.

              Most adults are immature as fuck and we don’t realize it as kids because they either keep their immaturity hidden from us or they’re hidden from us by society.

              There are of course mature adults, but most adults are just big kids who never learned to take responsibility for themselves.
