It’s got some good ideas but you lost me at once they vote they can sort by most popular comments. So users only get one vote ? Also how do you stop the sorting before vote the sort happens at the app level or browser level. If I have all the comments via the api I can’t sort and nothing can stop me from doing so.

But I like the other ideas I also think it would be good to expand to 3 types of threads the two you listed but I would use technical vs normal and add a serious type for non-technical threads.

Netflix used the SAAS all the code is in the cloud and we don’t distribute it loophole of the GPL v2

i will agree with this when Linux has 5 to 10% market share just enough to where manufacturers can’t ignore us anymore. The problem will come cause the stuff they ignore us with. Is full featured but garbage drivers with Spyware like crap print drivers with pop-up ads or games with rootkits for drm.

steam deck proves this. If everyone loved windows so much they would install it on the deck but they don’t. Microsoft pays the PC makers in the states a lot of money to keep Windows Pre-Installed. Even then Hp put our a dev Linux Laptop because Dev’s want a Unix like OS ether Linux or Mac.
