Every single person I've seen defending it has been a lemmy.ml user which from my understanding is not too dissimilar from hexbears

I love that without fail every single person in this thread defending hexbears is from ml with the same pronoun tag format every single hexbear seems to have

Almost like they're hexbear alts or something

I love when shows have subtle nods to show their support for these things rather than having to draw as much attention as possible to how progressive they are being

Need hardware with it pre installed with a reason to buy other than because it has Linux

Maybe use the lack of a requirement for a Windows license to bring the price to performance ratio down

If they're really performant machines also helps break the idea Linux is only for old and slow machines, I only ever used to put it on laptops as they were reaching the end of their usefulness, the moment I put it on my pc and a new laptop it changed my perception on it entirely

I also think the majority of technical users still use windows, maybe we should concentrate on getting them first and maybe we'll see more support

I'm out of the loop did they un-release the game?

Problem is buying a car most of the different brands are quite different, there are so many distros that are just Ubuntu underneath that are basically identical with a different desktop

Those are decisions about things everyone already understands, choosing a distro for a new user is like deciding what your favourite photo is from a blurry, black and white album

That would just be irresponsible we want fewer bugs not more of them!

They would ban it if was really bad because it's illegal for that stuff to exist and they will face much more serious issues as a company if they don't remove it, they're not doing it out of the goodness of they're hearts

Also not a good look for a company to be hosting that stuff in general for their PR, which is determined entirely by the general population's reaction to their actions and not a small group of individuals in powerful positions

You know what you make a good point, I suppose if there's been appropriate chance for people to stop it from happening it's fair enough
