There's plenty of pieces of shit before and after PewDiePie that have contributed to the popularity(or even existence) of Linux, just because they might be morally questionable doesn't negate their potential usefulness to a good cause.

This is the shitty gatekeeping attitude that supports the stereetype you have you be a neckbearded techie living in your mom's basement to use Linux.

@Montagge As unpleasant it is to admit, shitty people that exist on this planet, are people too, and they also use computers. The year of Linux desktop must logically mean that it's used by everyone, regardless how much of a piece of shit they are. Being so uncompromising and adolescently idealistic about it doesn't do us much of a favour in terms of adoption.

On the other hand, a piece of shit with an audience might prove useful.

When was the last time you checked in on Felix and his actions? I personally haven't in at least 9 years, back around when he started getting heat for his less "friendly" statements.

Do you know, with absolute certainty, that he still holds those beliefs and still acts according to them?
