    I like Linux. I am not gay, not trans, not furry, and I absolutely hate the shit out of anime/manga/anything in that shit art style. I have a wife and kids.

    Idk how to fit in; I’m immune to linux side effects somehow.

      Why throw anime/manga into this same pot? That’s like saying you don’t like movies with real actors as a medium.

        Because people with no interest in anime see it as a monolithic genre defined by the unbelievable wasterfall of fanservice isekai drivel. Pretty much all forms of animation still bear the burden of being seen as a genre within a medium rather than a medium themselves.

          In all fairness, it’s is way too fucking common to start an anime and be like “oh shit this is pretty deep” and then episode three diverges into very uncomfortable underage stepsister beach episode filler.

      Sounds like serious insecurity. A lot of these memes are more along the lines of queer folk finding an accepting community and having fun posting things that would normally result in cyber bullying.

      Also the boykisser thing has always just been a joke. Don’t take it as an insult or something.

        No it’s lack of delineation.

        I want linux memes about linux. Period. When I come to Lemmy I don’t want sports, I don’t want yiff, I don’t want anime, I don’t want social issues, I’m here for the linux.

        I’m glad people are finding a place, but I’m not sorry if internet snark is just too much to handle when it looks off topic.
