    Re-creation of someone else’s post because the original was removed and I found it funny when I first saw it

    If the original was removed, there’s probably a reason.

    This “meme” chooses the dumbest reasons Linux is better when there are so many other options than “updates” and “old app”

      It’s yet another “Linux good, other OS bad” meme, which is by far my least favorite kind of Linux meme

      The reason the original was removed can be found at https://www.kevinswildlife.com/modlog/1016 by searching for the user “Kaped”. Apparently it was because that user broke the rules regarding “No bigotry” and “Be respectful” on https://lemmy.ml/ and a mod wanted to “remove content”.

      I doubt those reasons were actually related to the post this one copies, as it doesn’t seem bigoted, and probably isn’t much less respectful than other !linuxmemes@lemmy.world content.

      Also, memes can still be memes while being dumb. Unsophisticated stuff can also be funny! Perhaps fart jokes and other body humor are examples of this.
