IRC cannot die, it's still very active

I think Gemini's community will continue to grow, it now has excellent sites to communicate with each other · 10 months ago

I agree on Linux and IRC but appreciate the smallness of the Geminispace. I figure if we had more people/content here, very quickly someone(s) will try to monetize etc. and kill Gemini's spirit :) · 10 months ago

@koyu in earlier days i thought like you, but... i think linux, BSD etc.. should stay OSs for enthusiasts. if it becomes mainstream you get mainstream problems.. viruses, malware, people who don't know about what they're doing like windows users. like cars, when you're really into it, you know how to fix an engine, won't drive a mainstream car etc.. · 10 months ago

@userfxnet Garuda Linux on a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3. Also use it on my main gaming PC. I just really don't like where Microsoft is going. · 10 months ago

IRC seems to have a good bit of activity growin' back up, but I for sure hope more people get to Gemini and absolutely start using Unix/Linux in liu of Apple or MS. I'm on MX Linux over a Thinkpad I440 wb yall? · 10 months ago
