It's funny, GNU is about freedom of choice, yet just about every message I read has people trampling over others choice of operating system.
It's appalling to read almost every day these arguments. Yes, sometimes it's hard to support different platforms. I'm a software engineer myself, so I know the complexities of supporting different systems, if the maintainer doesn't want to support said platform I'm not going to argue, but if others are going to bash people for their choices, it's basically like reading poison. Just stop with it, it gets us no where and it goes against the very principal of GNU. I'm at the point where I just want to unsubscribe to the mailing list, it's that bad.
