No need to be so defensive… unless you you the F-Droid team they are writing about. Are you?
Either way it is just whataboutism aimed at a strawman. No one is saying proprietary software is better.

Not sure why its still showing for you but i removed my comment seconds after posting as i misread and didnt know this was about bulling. I firmly stand against bullies of any kind.
Ever since the xz thing i have noticed a general increase in articles and clickbait titles spreading fear about open source software in general, its started to feel like intentional propaganda, for this post it was unwarranted.
Ps: please do confirm if my comments is removed by now on your end, i suspect comments may not always continue to sync between lemmy servers after the first initial postings.

There’s always been FUD around OSS, this is just a fresh wave of it since the xz thing got quite a bit of publicity.

Your original comment is not showing for me.

No, I still see it. Not sure why, maybe because I commented on it.
I’ve had several comments behave the same way, unable to actually delete them, even after waiting a while for the delete to propagate.

The best thing to do is edit it to be just a period then delete. I can still sew deleted comments by hitting copy text

Naturally closed source for profit software is so much better and would never contain anything malicious.
We know this for certain because the PR department affirmed us that there is nothing malicious or illegal within their code. There internal investigations found no proof of hacking from external sources, All code changes where done with the full legal permission of our Ceo and Overlord Marz Kucherberg ™

I mistook the post and didn’t know it was about bullying specifically so my comment was unwarranted
There have been other posts of late where my sentiment is more ontopic but here it only muddies the actual discussion.

Yeah but reading that shit was good. Especially the quote’s origin.
