the rules are clearly presented

I use Voyager. Community rules are hidden unless you specifically go to that community page, open the menu, and select "sidebar". It's incredibly easy to miss.

If a community only wants some people posting then a quick fix is to not allow just anyone to post to it.

Ancient Roman satirical poet Juvenal wrote that all people care about are "bread and circuses" over 2,000 years ago and it still applies.

I think it mostly comes down to baby duck syndrome. People don't like using a package manager for programs on their desktop but are fine using an app store on their phone (which might literally be running linux). People simply expect a desktop computer to work a specific way and when things are in different spots and called different things they get upset. I think it's changing as more companies bake Linux into their product.

Steam Decks running Linux changes people's impression of it. If a mainstream company sold desktop computers that came with Linux preinstalled I'm sure its use would skyrocket. It's not that it's impossible for the average user to understand, It's that it's not the default option.

I honestly think it comes down to the fact that I have never once thought about what “gangster” actually means, or how to measure it in a food. So when I said, “Today we are looking for the most gangster enchilada in Albuquerque,” I fucked myself. I fucked my film crew. I fucked the people of Albuquerque.

At least buy me an enchilada first!

Michael Cera. He does a good job, but the whole time you're waiting for him to do his "awkward teenager" character.

The sidebar also says "this is an inclusive community" followed by a rule that excludes 50% of the planet.

It's 40+ year olds calling you names.

That always makes it a bit worse. When I see ignorant comments on other sites, I usually tell myself it might be made by an edgy teenager. Can't do that on Lemmy. That's a grown adult praising North Korea...

Shirt buttons are sown onto the left side of women's clothes and the right side of men's. The buttons on his shirt are on his right side.

I'm assuming OP means maybe the DNA model has the helix spinning the wrong way because the image was flipped horizontally, but that would cause the shirt buttons to be on the wrong side for men's clothes.

It was sarcasm. I really dislike that the only thing young men will protest about is saving video games.
