@MoeBritannica linuxtards lost long ago, I can't even launch Steam on mint

@tomie @Kyonko802 @MoeBritannica old kernel should not prevent opening steam. linux is not windows if you want you can help yourself by simple running steam from the command line to get information.

there are also like 5 different ways alone you could install steam. flatpak often fixes many issues
@DarkMahesvara @tomie @MoeBritannica my thought was that he got a mismatched package somewhere because that was the problem I ran into. I was too lazy to switch to edge so I got flatpak steam for a while

@Kyonko802 @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica idk and idc why steam one day decided to stop working on mint; all I know that it doesn't and fixing that is just as annoying as everything else on linux and requires some obscure wizardry

@tomie @Kyonko802 @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica not really, the wizardry comes in when people insist on using debian stable and it's derivates (ubuntu, mint, mint debian edition) or arch and go full updaaaaater (update packages every day cuz muh bleedin edge) distros or branches of distros with saner package life times don't suffer like that (even debian testing requires less wizardry than ubuntu)
@EdBoatConnoisseur @tomie @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica stable has been getting slightly better about packages. Mainly mint edge, popOS, and that new one that I forgot the name of that the GE guy made. I wouldn't bother giving this one advice, though
@tomie @EdBoatConnoisseur @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica no I just noticed you were being a passive aggressive shithead over some dumb software and decided to take a peak at your tl only to not be surprised at all

@Kyonko802 @EdBoatConnoisseur @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica pls don't project yourself being a passive-aggressive shithead onto me, thank you ❤️ i was nothing but polite even while fully knowing that any linux thread turns into full on preaching about virtues of FOSS (even when it fails to do the simplest thing like launching Steam)

@tomie @EdBoatConnoisseur @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica no you weren't. You launched into the same "linux is shitty" post and ignored all potential helping hands given to you when a polite "No thank you ill stick with what works for me" would have been fine. And now here you are being a stereotype and putting hearts on your post after someone notices you're an asshole. Go back to Twitter. You'll fit in wonderfully there.

I didn't ask for any helping hand in a first place but still was nothing but polite ❤️ so kindly thank you but I'd rather both stick to what works and to my own decisions regarding what to reply to "windows sux" shitposts
