Same. Using Linux and FOSS for over 20 years but that Boost announcement thread was toxic. We just started removing those comments and banning them from the community. Those people don't see those 1000 people that came here thanks to boost will now more than likely come across Linux and Foss related subjects anyway. No need to push it down their throats and push them back to reddit.

Honestly there are people doing this because they know it annoys people.

Ofcourse there were people calling me a "poweradmin" because of it, but I have thick skin ๐Ÿ˜ And a large banhammer ๐Ÿ˜
