Just because PewDiePie switched to Linux doesn't mean we should listen to his browser recommendations
not his recommendations
True but he's sparking more interest in FOSS so that's still a good thing. I doubt his advice is perfect but if it gets more people started onto their own journey it's a win.
You're right about that, I was moreso saying that his crappy browser tier list isn't worth sharing
Very true, I feel like people miss the point of his own experience and/or opinion
People on Lemmy seem to be Pewdiepie bootlickers. Idk why but it's really weird. Apparently you can do whatever but as long as you promote Linux, Lemmy will love you. Ridiculous.
