Not more options, you want your option to win.
What does that even mean?
Most people here would be satisfied with a working website they can access from any browser or OS, mobile or desktop.
And? Apple and Google are too big and influential as they’re. Why go attacking the little guys?
Linux is awesome, what are you crying about?
You're an idiot or you're trolling, I honestly can't tell.
I'm never trolling about Linux. On Lemmy there are so many cultists that you can say the most innocuous things and it will be downvoted to oblivion or deleted for "trolling". Maybe you don't like calling it a cult but I get more downvoted for negative comments about Linux than other people do when they literally say Nazi things.
And then you get people like this....I mean what kind of broken prejudiced brain do you have to have to think this comparison is ok?

"You're a cultist!" screamed the cultist, angry at people for using something other than what the cultist prefers.
Because a Linux phone is objectively superior, duh
We want other options to be allowed to exist. This is "you just want everyone to be gay/trans/whatever" all over again.
Oof you're comparing government suppression of entire classes of people to linux' failure to attract developers to the platform...... How do you not realize you're in a cult???
