@gamingonlinux Wow. just, wow. I'm lost for words. Instablock here for me.

TetraShot7

@gamingonlinux People can seriously be a bunch of idiots these days now. I really don't like it.

Internet Rando

@gamingonlinux

probaby a bot.

I'm trying to imagine an actual human being, enlightened enough to understand and use free and open source software, but on some level believes this is a rational response to another human being? Another human that is doing more to promote Linux Gaming, in their fucking spare time, than the author of this will ever do?

it's gotta be a bot. That's the only logical conclusion. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@gamingonlinux
Sorry you got this. Trolls ๐Ÿ™„. Don't let it get to you, block and forget.

halva

@gamingonlinux did RMS bite them

Bluszcz

@gamingonlinux @Gargron Yeah, sorry that such things happens. Hopefully domain is blocked already.

Raptor :gamedev:

@gamingonlinux @Gargron Holy crap, do yourself a favor and don't look at the rest of the posts on that instance or that guys other instance.These instances seem to be entirely for trolling/hate and need to be defed.
domains are shrimpposter. club and shitposter. club
@aras #fediblock

queerAF

@gamingonlinux @Gargron its exactly what Gargron wants to be on Mastodon and why he made this.

DELETED

@gamingonlinux use the report button he employs full-time moderators for a reason dont bother the guy

Jae ๐Ÿง ๐ŸŽฎ

@gamingonlinux @Gargron What in the blue hell, dude. It's literally over FOSS and proprietary software. What drives such anger over so little...

Sorry you're dealing with that. I've always seen your content as a good thing :/

Fruity Mercury :catjam:

@gamingonlinux funniest about this, is that you have probably single-handedly done more to promote FOSS, than this person can hope to achieve in multiple lifetimes.

TheRetroSven

@gamingonlinux WTF is wrong with the people, feel hugged. Ban them without a blink.

Bรธ!rge

@gamingonlinux Jesus fucking christ. People are fucked up! I just got something similar on my toot supporting trans people. There are terrible people everywhere, don't let them get you down!

Marcus "MajorLinux" Summers

@gamingonlinux This ain't a good luck for the Fediverse.

Like WTF, man!

Dude need to touch grass or something!

I appreciate all your hard work!

Bluntelk

@gamingonlinux well that's rather exciting! Keyboard warrior trying to troll and failing.

Keep up the work my dude

Javier Heredia

@gamingonlinux I think that should be reported to the admins. The whole instance looks like edgelords trying to get noticed.

marc [sustain release] โœ…

@gamingonlinux
Don't worry too much about it. Bigoted and rude people are not exclusive to other platforms, I guess.

Fuchsiii~~~

@gamingonlinux oh no the gpl nazis are at it againโ€ฆ -.-

Eric Carroll

@gamingonlinux
1. report it to the mods
2. Request defederation for advocating violence & harm
3. Block the entire domain with your personal block domain function

mosttoast

@gamingonlinux other people just wake up in a shitty mood and post. i appreciate your stuff.

Asahi 95 :blobcatblink:

@gamingonlinux
Bunch of FOSS purists, I recommend blocking them :blobcatglare:

People like this are the reason why I've decided to stop advocating for FOSS purely

Jake Mauer

@gamingonlinux Good grief. Going to state the obvious that
A. You do great work.
B. This person is nuts
C. I'm sorry you get shit like this flung at you.

April :ms_penguin:

@gamingonlinux All for encouraging more use of free software and do take potshots at proprietary software, but what??? Some people need some grass to touch.

WelshPixie, ShadowFigure

@gamingonlinux Shrimpposter.club is a shit 'alt-fedi' instance that frequently does the rounds on fediblock, is well known for abuse and harassment, and one of many examples of 'instances the rest of us have blocked that m.social and m.online don't'. They're one of those instances that will always take advantage of not being domain-blocked by an instance as an invitation to start harassing people and m.s/m.o are long, *long* overdue getting their shit together and blocking these cesspools.

Tipiak75 :kirby:

@gamingonlinux Might have added a Content Warning on this one perhaps.

Stormy178

@gamingonlinux like others have said, time to put the hammer down.

Tofu Musubi

@gamingonlinux As Mastodon continues to accept Twitter refugees, we will almost inevitably see more bullies and trolls. I hope this "shreso" gets the mental health support that they desperately need.

Fuchsiii~~~

@gamingonlinux the โ€žno proprietary software shill on Mastodonโ€œ doesnโ€™t actually use mastodon. And is right now crying to the mastodon dev XD

omissis

@gamingonlinux that really sucks mate, instaban that idiot and possibly report it to the instances admin? Keep on rockin' ๐Ÿ’ช

karolherbst ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿฆ€

@gamingonlinux I did the mistake and checked what their instance is up to and it's a pure dumpster fire...

MagicLike | #AfDVerbotJetzt

@gamingonlinux ouuuuu I see some spicy stuff to ban instance wide multie times :blobhammer:

TechnicusApparaticus

@gamingonlinux Wow...just wow. There is so much mental illness out there. It's sad. Block and move on.

Scott Guertin

@gamingonlinux They sound like they've got the emotional maturity of a spoiled 12 year old

Hyolobrika

@gamingonlinux
I just demonstrated out you should treat him ITT. You're welcome.
He is known for shit like that btw: archive.ph/bDUyu/

jasonrbriggs

@gamingonlinux What I would really like to know is how do these people manage to write so many words? Surely it's not possible to breathe, look at a screen and at the same time operate your fingers to type this garbage with only two two brain cells to rub together...?

Andreas Grois

@gamingonlinux I can't find the words to describe what I think at the moment.

Please, even though that person posts from some fringe instance with seemingly just 2 active users, report them. Maybe the server's admin steps in...

If it's any solace, that person seems to be confused what social network they are on. Their instance is Plethora, not Mastodon.

In any case, please don't let the haters ruin the fediverse for you. Plenty of people here enjoy your posts.

Matthias :veritrek_red:

@gamingonlinux I donโ€™t get those people. My only solution is to block everyone that is that way.
(And it proves just fine: itโ€™s not the platform, itโ€™s always the people)

Riesi

@gamingonlinux Why are people like this...
I hope you dont take that garbage too personal. Getting such comments all the time must be exhausting.

I wish you all the best.
๐Ÿธโค๏ธ

ShadowTux

@gamingonlinux Looking at their chat log with the instance admin for the past day and after this toot. Looks like fediblock stuff yeah.

gplr_

@gamingonlinux again: learn to ignore such clowns๐Ÿ˜‰

Melinda

@gamingonlinux
Block, ban. I've not come across such vile comments here before, generally folks are great and have conversations rather than rants. Hope this nasty piece of work can be weeded out!

Zeronaut

@gamingonlinux Please don't listen to that disgruntled person. It is always a net positive for everyone to continue to live. Plus I enjoy your content as someone who enjoys both linux and gaming. But seriously folks, I know full well things can be harrowing in this world. But there's plenty of joy worth living for. Find it and keep living for it. Love the haters if you can, if not, ignore them and don't look back.

Asahi 95 :verifiedbi:

@gamingonlinux everyone should block that entire instance, it's just full of trolls and hate speech, including telling those to do self-harm :blobcatglare:

Matthias

@gamingonlinux report the guy to your and his admin. At least on my instance such behavior will get the whole server banned if their admins donโ€™t do anything about this weirdo.

regeya

@gamingonlinux this must be some of that "critical commentary" people claimed the lack of quote tweeting was preventing.

Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

@regeya and you thought replying this was in any way helpful why?

regeya

@gamingonlinux I'm not sure why my comment warranted hostility...

Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

@regeya maybe i misread you and you were talking about them and not me

regeya

@gamingonlinux you shouldn't have to worry about misreading my replies anymore. Shout at the void for all I care.
