In 2009, Clement Lefebvre, the lead developer of Linux Mint, posted a controversial blog entry asking supporters of the Israeli government's actions against Palestinians to stop using and donating to the project. This statement sparked significant backlash within the Linux community, with some supporting his stance and others condemning it as inappropriate and potentially antisemitic, especially since it violated the principles of open-source software freedom.

why should schlomo's and mr. chud's opinions be of any concern to me?

I already liked Mint before I knew it was the most anti-genocide distro.

yeah because at any given time there aren't 30 ragebait threads on /g/
and for the record I'm the first person to ever post his anti Israel stance on /g/ back when Mint was not uniformly glazed but reviled
>>
I mean, if you hate da joos why not just use BSD? The GPL Jews hate their license because it's not culturally marxist or whatever.
Anyway, the main reason I wouldn't recommend Mint for Windows users is that there's only 4 years of support for releases.

And that's the reason why 4chan is pretty much useless.

Can you get any faggier? Who cares retard. No one is pro genocide other than bots and larpers. Mint is cool not because it's good software, the dev not being a bloodthirsty maniac doesn't matter

You mean stop supporting the country that bombed 7 different countries this year alone, executed an holocaust on more people than the Nazis and broke a ceasefire just this week while still claiming they are the victims?

Mr. Westfallen, I already decided to go with Mint, you dont need to sell it even more...

j words like Stallman might not be 'rich' but they don't worry about money either because they already have it. Guarantee that commie k word (kike) had at least 100,000 dollars by default as an 18 year old kid
just another rich kid disconnected from the reality of the world
as in... richard stallman has never worried about having his power being shut off, has never not had money for food.
not a religious thing, a class thing. a rich kid

Brain worms. You people are a parody of yourselves. No matter how obviously contradictory the logic is, your tiny pea sized brain will manage to somehow convince itself that the Jews just so happen to like the things you dislike and love the things you hate.
The Jews made the bread go bad.

you are very obviously not Jewish. Jewish people have high verbal IQ's and you clearly don't

Linux was originally released under another license, it was Stallman and his henchmen who bullied Linus who was just a kid into changing it so they could hijack it, and they certainly tried.
as Stalinman tried to force a rename to liGNUx before settling on GNU/Linux which is something turbocommies use unironically even on /g/ as a fuck you to the original developer, who has stated that it would not apply to any distro which doesn't explicitly adopt the terminology.

Are the Jews also at fault for your micropenis?

I have a great amount of respect for people who speak the truth even when it is inconvenient, unpopular or frowned upon. It proves they really have a guiding moral compass and are genuinely just trying to do what it is right. It makes them a lot more trustworthy.

It's a French project, and we all now the world have not enough taste & refinery to appreciate the French natural superiority. So I propose you all migrate to something more mundane like Ubuntu or that you role play as an actual linux user with a Gentoo.

But of course we all know you're just posers.

I can't recommend Mint because:
1. Right after that statement, their site got hacked so it distributed compromised ISOs. The project kept getting attacked frequently after that too.
2. They stopped making LMDE with XFCE, building it with Mate and Cinnamon instead. They also never fully switched to Debian.
3. Despite the above they adopted systemd, when it was probably the only project with the means to comfortably make non-systemd forks of Ubuntu or Debian.
4. They broke time compatibilty with other distros, even their previous ones.
5. It has always been a bloated distro and it seems they will never fix this.

I don't know if any of these things have changed for the better now and I don't care. The fact that they happened at all showed the project achieved things in spite of how it was directed, not because of it.

But banning devs just because they are russian is perfectly fine.
