I never expected to see a lunduke in the wild
His haters make him famous
He was famous for the Linux Sucks talks, and used to be pretty chill always signing off his vids with "be excellent to each other" often playing around with old tech, then idk suddenly brain worms.
Does he actually think Linux sucks? I'll have to look up these "Linux Sucks talks". I like Linux. I kinda like Rust too.
edit: OK question answered in first two minutes of the first "Linux Sucks" talk. He likes linux and I guess these talks are about improving it.
No he is a big proponent of FOSS and quite likes Linux. His Linux Sucks talks were more of a state of the union on big Linux distros and supporting software just going over pain points and what needed improvement. He used to be the public affairs manager for Open Suse if i recall correctly.
But yeah sometime in the last few years he went hard conservative and not in the classical don't change anything way. These days he complains about trans people, insists Rust is a woke cult, and at one point called for his followers to document everyone in FOSS who has ever said anything about supporting anti-facism so he could report them as terrorists. Dude legit lost his marbles and jumped off the deep end hard.
No his "Linux sucks" talks were more like a roast of people in the Linux world. It was done in good fun and at most just poked fun at people.
He went off the deep end a little while ago.
Yup. "Linux sucks" was how I encountered the guy; he seemed like a friendly, goofy guy. Had a lot of fun watching his Lunduke journal videos regularly back then and they went along well with my beginner's journey into the Linux world. He always seemed a bit politically naive and tryhard centrist/apolitical, whenever something remotely political came up.
Then I lost track of him for a while, maybe during one of his attempts to ditch youtube altogether. When I came back a few months into the pandemic: boy did this guy get off the rails!
It really saddened me to see, what had become of him.
