Geeez these comments guys…
So even if you like or dislike pewdiepie. I think him showing of Linux is good. Getting more people to realize Linux exist and is a viable alternative to Windows or Mac is a good thing.
Assholes being called out for being assholes is a good thing.
I have a feeling this thread won’t be about Linux.
Hyprland soon to be known as “the Nazi OS” if it keeps getting shown off by a well known swedish neo Nazi
Does Hyprland work well for gaming compared to KDE? Can it do HDR, VRR and so on?
Always wanted to try a tiling WM but was afraid of losing features.
dropping pewds in ml and getting upvotes wasn’t on mine
Awesome! I hope he will help share this with more folks, the friends who I’ve talked into finally giving modern non-Ubuntu Linux a shot love it, but there’s a lot of work to get over the damaged image created by the countless “linux user installing a browser” memes. I’m sure someone with his reach can help though :)
Found out just now he made a video about it and explained his actual experience using it, it’s really cool! Glad to see more folks sharing this stuff.
I hope he gets run over by a bus
Nazi and transphobic. OP should be ashamed of posting this.
He’s an attention-seeking edgelord and a buffoon, but I highly doubt the Nazi allegations. This comes from someone who genuinely believes in the right to punch Nazis. We need to be careful about throwing the Nazi-card in all directions, or the real ones will slip through the cracks (some have already managed to skip into positions of power while us plebs are squabbling). He did a couple of insanely stupid things that he should have grown out of by age 15, hopefully he learned from that.

Well, I see the problem now. Punching people doesn’t solve Nazism.
If you were advocating for reeducating them, revoking their right to vote, or even putting them in prison, fine. But punching people is just some weird power fantasy, “I’m better than you because I beat you up.”
The fact you think beating people up just to feel dominant or whatever is good politics shows you have a lot in common with Pewds… and, well, Nazis.
Cool setup. I used to customise my setup long back but this gave me some inspiration to try again
I’ve never wanted to use it less now tbh
what’s happening now ?
Last thing I remember was him dropping a hard R.
That was over half a decade ago. In the meantime he has spent time bettering himself and being a decent person.
You mean like growing up?
Yeah. People do that. Surprise surprise.
hey cool the nazis using the nazi made wm
“look at me! give me attention!”
I’m out of the loop on this one? A Swedish using a Polish WM, and you call them Nazis?
I know that the hyprland dev has strong political opinions, but I genuinely dont know what they are because I don’t care, and I use another WM. Are they really both Nazis? I dont know because I dont follow these guys. I dont want this word to be misused when actual Nazis are trying to take over the free world again
Vaxry was acting Polish in front of Drew DeVault and was immediately labeled nazi apologist.
The discussion went like this:
— is there anything that could sway your opinion towards genocide?
— well, claiming “no” would be presumptuous, I am just a human, so, probably yes?
— I rest my case
A transpobic twm and a nazi. Match made in hell.
Honestly I started looking into it (found some articles from 2017 where he showed Nazi imagery) and started asking myself wtf am I doing.
Calling people Nazis over the tamest crap is so old. I’m so done with the liberal crowd on Lemmy jerking each other off over simplistic issues. Get a grip.
He said a no no word in a fit of rage in a livestream over half a decade ago. Ever since then he’s spent time being a better person. But internet neckbeards never forgive.
my thoughts exactly. I’ll stick with sway
Doesn’t change the fact that he’s a Nazi.
I’m not a fan of this guy. I think he’s an insufferable edgelord.
But he’s not a nazi. Stop throwing labels you do not understand around.
I don’t watch him, so can’t tell, this just popped up in my mastodon feed, from someone else! <3
What happened?
I don’t agree that he’s a nazi but he did some pretty heinous things, like tricking these people into writing this horrible sign:
https://www.theverge.com/2017/2/13/14605060/pewdiepie-disney-deal-lost-nazi-anti-semitic-imagery
and he did a hard-r on stream.
I don’t think this qualifies for being a nazi (he doesn’t advocate for an authoritarian dictatorship or a protectionist economy, nor does he want to scapegoat a group for all of his countries problems), but it is awful, racist, and disgusting.
But I don’t really care if people do call him a nazi, to be clear, it’s probably more effective messaging anyway.
All of that was over half a decade ago. At this time on YouTube, everyone was doing edgy jokes. He has spent the meantime bettering himself.
Plus PewDiePie has openly supported the Pirate Party, witch is far from Authoritarian, in fact, anti-corruption, anti-authoritarianism, and advocates for direct democracy, internet freedom, privacy, etc…
Edit: @[email protected] I have to agree, what he said, on that bridge, he should not have said, but labeling him a Nazi is not right!
Edit 2: It takes 1 brain-cell to check if Felix is a Nazi!
That’s not how the internet works. You make one mistake and the online leftists never forgive you.
He’s drop the n bomb multiple times on stream
Maybe he identifies as black.
