maybe this might revive Pewdiepie grow again???
Any idea of this guy made any significant impact when he installed Linux recently?
Linux has had a major increase in usership lately if I recall right, and supposedly windows has lost a major number of users (although mostly people dropping desktops for just phones).
No idea if PewDiePie contributed or not.

i don't really know if the linux community should be claiming the guy who casually drops the n word like he breathes air as our guy.
edit: JESUS FUCK y'all have too much time on your hands
I was gonna say, isn't he a shithead? I don't really know. Maybe he grew up.
Edit: sounds like he apologized, good for him!
I don't claim to know him but I think he was a foolish kid who is now learning the error of his ways. He never struck me as someone who was intentionally malicious but rather someone who is very uninformed and didn't realize it. He said it once in a stream, he used it to mean basically "asshole" when someone killed him. I'm sure he knew it was racist, but he probably didn't know the WHY to why it was or the real cultural significance it has in the US, he's swedish, he's so far removed from American culture. And I don't think he realized the impact of saying that and some of his other comments had on his young impressionable fans.
It SEEMS like he's becoming more politically left leaning and has unlearned some of his bias he had in the past. I don't know for sure but I hope he has.
🍿oh this comment section the good stuff.
