Ehhhhh no that's obviously wrong.

Coming at him with a personal insult is not the way to go about this.

The correct way is to point out that most Christmas traditions are not rooted in Christianity, but in paganism.

You weren't banned for "being annoying", you were banned for being combative with the people trying to help you.

I don't know why you would come here thinking it would be different after you were ostracized from all those other communities...

I have had this problem in several laptops and phones over the years. It's usually a loose/dirty connection. Try a different cable.

So you don't think it's possible for someone to support a project and simultaneously acknowledge that it doesn't suit everyone's use-case?

I think you're misreading the comment you replied to. It's obviously sarcastic.

Someone buys an expensive car. They say "I cant use the railway!" Are you going to tell them they're wrong?

Yes. Because they are.

We dont know if they live next to a railway line. They're also heavily invested in the car and unlikely to pay out for rail tickets.

None of which indicates they "can't use the railway". It may not be their preferred travel method, which is fine (in the metaphorical sense), but to say they "can't" use the railway is simply untrue.

OP said "the software and driver support isn't there".

Someone replied and corrected them to explain the software and driver support does in fact exist.

OP replied to say that what he actually meant was that it didn't support the specific software and driver they wanted to use.

Seems like a perfectly reasonable conversation.

What about it

Good, they suck at it anyway. And podcasts are one of those rare things in this day and age that is federated, truly "open" and also mainstream so fuck them for trying to ruin that.
