 "I am following this account for news about, well, gaming on Linux. I'd appreciate it if you could stick to the content I, and I expect most others, are following this account for." If this is you. Don't follow me. And anyone sending me that shit will be blocked. I am an actual person, not a robot, thanks. 31 comments
@gamingonlinux nono, you're supposed to go back into the freeze chamber when you're not doing Linux gaming, sole purpose in life (joking ofc) @gamingonlinux I am butthurt about this account not shitposting enough, and no, I won't silently unfollow because I feel entitled and you should listen to my opinion @gamingonlinux @Englebert3rd Yeah exactly. I'm not a robot, this is a social network lol. If people just want news visit the site or use the RSS feed 😆 @gamingonlinux Taking the piss out of current internet events is worthy of an account of its own.  @gamingonlinux It's not your name, but your current status. At all times, you are GamingOnLinux. @gamingonlinux You mean you don't consult with the PR department of your local GoL branch before posting? Aren't you scared that your stock valuation will go down? @gamingonlinux I follow this account for the social commentary, the Linux gaming stuff is just a bonus. 🤣 @gamingonlinux If I did daily affirmations, saying 'I am an actual person, not a robot, thanks' out loud would be a pretty cool way to start the day. @gamingonlinux lol, I can't understand what would be going through someone's head when writing that. Do they honestly think they have a right to force you to do what they want you to do? @gamingonlinux Well, I'm following for content about gaming on Hannah Montana Linux, where is it? Fake account name.  @gamingonlinux :blobheartcat: > I am an actual person, not a robot, thanks. 👏 Damn, if I were not already following you, I would immediately start. Wish I could somehow double-follow or something! @gamingonlinux I wonder if those people know that they really said "stick to sports" https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/30/business/media/deadspin-sports-staff.html @gamingonlinux This is honestly a good reminder as to why Twitter and FB managed to centralize so much in the first place - they made sure newer internet users never hear of a useful thing *designed for following news* (and similar feeds) called RSS. Social media is not your RSS reader, and all the news accounts that sprung up *just* to mirror them are part of the problem. It's terrifying to think that so many people *only* get their news from social media accounts. @gamingonlinux you mean you can't just let the one thing you talk about be gaming?!? How dare you?!?! What are you, human? Let them unfollow. I like to know the people I follow, and even companies, are actual humans with morals. Better to just let them unfollow you, and let them have their baby tantrums somewhere else. I'm sure there are other social media platforms that people can go to......Truth..hehe @gamingonlinux oh, but you don’t understand. My timeline is pristine, and you alone are making me scroll past content that I don’t want, and scrolling is so hard. And you must understand that now I have to write you a strongly worded response, which is an even bigger waste of my precious time. Obviously, you are the problem /s @gamingonlinux A bit of tongue and cheek is awesome but it gets a bit tiring when you go on and on about it. |

Yes this account is "GamingOnLinux", but it's just a name. This account is for everything I do, not just a feed of news. That includes taking the piss out of current internet events.
