But pirates aren’t taking anything

I’m curious to know what arch-based distro you’re talking about?

Can’t speak for the person you’re responding to, but honestly no, not really? Like, of course it’s a big deal that this stuff happens, but it’s so common that every individual story just seems obvious. It should def be recorded when we find those instances if not just for proof, but I personally just don’t care about seeing it my news. Especially when it seems pretty off topic for the technology sub.

I mean, I definitely consider my patched DWM as part of my dotfiles, just one that happens to be compiled. And if I can 1-up your pedantry, mine is in .local so it is literally in my "dot"files :P.

I don’t think I’d necessarily agree with that, but just to note, op is recommending the BSDs, not Linux.

I think that’s ridiculous. I vastly prefer FOSS and so I won’t use this, but clearly professional software being ported to Linux is a big deal for Linux and its userbase.

Should we ban discussion about any distro that’s not certified by the FSF? Should we ban news about proprietary Nvidia drivers?

??? There are thousands of companies that do business in the US that aren’t american.

This seems like a very reasonable and pretty tame warning?

Wanting to restrict the rights of minorites isn’t a valid position. It’s vile and worthy of hatred.
