From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I posted that link in my company chat, where some do use Mint but most don't (mix of Ubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora). Many were interested, and we have had a healthy discussion about some of the evaluation points, some of which we did find subjective and not very meaningful, and how Mint compared with the other distro evaluation linked at the top of the article.
Also, you are talking about firewall GUI, but it is not even one of the evaluation points. They just said that there was nothing about a firewall configuration in the configuration wizard.
However the evaluation points were:
Did you actually read the article? I doubt it. If you did, you would have noticed that the article does mention the methodology, and the results for other distros, with link to them if need be. Someone using yet another distro could be interested in that methodology to improve it or post a review about their favorite distro too. Maybe that is not "Linux enough" for you. In that case, you can move on.
Thank you.
So you generalize just because what some people said in another chat, okay. Not that we can use this anyway, since this is irrelevant to Lemmy. Also no one here talks about the review, we are talking about your intolerance accepting valid criticism. Instead of saying, oh hey, sorry I post it into the wrong community you pretend and defend your wrongdoing. The argument you bring here is also irrelevant to the subject since the original author intended that to be a Linux Mint Review. Nothing more. It is clearly stated in the first sentence of the article.
It was an example that was mentioned in the Review.
Weak argument. The article is still about Linux Mint and not intended for something else, you just want it to be for something else and generalize everything now to justify your weak and flawed logic.
It is a REVIEW ABOUT LINUX MINT. Again it is not intended to be a general statement about other Linxu distros. Please stop wrongfully interpret more into it, it does not work in other distros. Just because one statement maybe fits for other distros does it make it useful to share in the wrong community.
Accept that you are wrong, defending your wrong arguments makes it worse for you, the more you answer the easier it is to humiliate you.
I take note of your explicit intent of humiliating me.
I also take note of your condescending tone:
Yelling at people, threatening them, humiliating them is not a civil conduct, and hereby ask for a moderation team intervention for violation of rule 2.
Normal dude with backbone would just delete the post and post it into correct Community, I see that as humiliation of your character, as I said incapable of accepting feedback or see the points here.
If you cannot handle criticism, and call everything - not civil conduct - even after proving you wrong, then dunno what else to say other than this is an embarrassment.
