Listen up you useless mods. If you are going to send desktop threads to /wg/, then I will need you to also clean up these threads which are EVEN LESS RELEVANT to Sup Forums than desktop threads were.
ptg wt hpg Any hardware tests with a gaming benchmark or Linusposting Why would you rid us of GNU/Linux desktops, but leave watches?
Gavin Anderson
I think battlestation threads should go to . A photo of a desk in a room isn't technology, it's just photography.
Gavin Reed
I'm conflicted because the room is an extension of the things we use. What if it was full of linux/bsd swag and servers?
Sebastian Hill
wonder if this is autosaging from the "desktop thread" filter
Julian Lee
lmao it is
Ryan Wright
Literally a word filter? I'll re-create if I have to, it's time to drain the Sup Forums swamp.
Jeremiah Hernandez
any thread with the words "desktop" and "thread" consecutively gets autosaged. if you repost, make sure you use a "Sup Forums related" image and mention that, as per hiro, every board is allowed to have one meta thread
Oliver Gomez
This is grape-kun, a personification of the users here and a descendant of the Linux mascot.
Sebastian Williams
>mods actually move the threads to these boards >who's laughing now, nigga?
Landon Stewart
so what, that leaves us with consumertard threads? There are close to no threads about tech here anyway Sup Forums is just Sup Forums's shopping basket at this point
Lucas Kelly
he's not saying that, he's saying that if one goes they all should go this is very biased and leaves a lot of not really related tech stuff on the board while removing actual tech threads just because a mod doesn't like them
Noah Green
the desktop threads were a better part of this board's culture than any of the consumer cancer
I think being selective with what you throw away is better than taking the all or nothing approach
Ethan Collins
i agree, and the op does too what he's trying to say is that the mods are obviously just biased against desktop threads, because none of those other threads should even be here and yet they get to stay
Owen Adams
I understand but don't give the shitty mods ideas otherwise they might flush the last remaining good parts of this board down the shitter
Jaxon Wood
none of those threads are good though aside from /ptg/ those are literally the consumertard threads you seem to hate
Dominic Howard
I don't want them to remove the good from the bad. hpg and tpg for example have more valuable tech related content than the consumer threads about itoys and GPUs that devolve to shit flinging immediately
Christopher Campbell
Intel/ryzen/gaming goes to Sup Forums which cuts out all consumerism except smartphones which can stay until I find a better home, at least they have a containment general.
But we keep programming threads, GNU/Linux and BSD discussion and everything else relevant. We are purging the irrelevant noise to make it easier to find the gems.
Joseph Hughes
We already have a board for torrents, why is ptg here? See my original post, they are not technology, they are hoarders.
Ayden Nelson
ishit needs a containment general but I don't think there is enough of a following to keep it going at this point
that would cut down on so much garbage
Kevin Carter
I didn't say it belonged here, I said it wasn't consumer trash like the others
Blake Hughes
macOS is UNIX, its more tech related than most of the other threads here
Ian Ramirez
Fair enough.
Jose Thomas
bump. also fuck the mods
Daniel Hernandez
This cannot be bumped, apparently "desktop thread" in my OP is autosaging.
Godspeed, user.
Bentley Adams
consumertard lifestyle device threads are not talking about macOS UNIX origins
99% of it is mindless shit flinging and the 1% that tries to properly talk about tech elements gets covered in the shit
macOS UNIX roots is such a niche topic lacking regular discussion here that it could be consolidated into the GNU/Linux thread and still be discussed properly
Jack Murphy
If there is such a popular demand for desktops on gee just rename it to whatever doesn't autosage
the mod cancer will give up on it if it's a regularly maintained general after a while
how do you think watches got a root here?
Jeremiah Bailey
The new cover is "screenfetch threads", I don't mind if desktop threads go to /wg/, I just think that mods should be consistent rather than arbitrarily selecting what stays and goes when there is so much off topic garbage here- desktop threads are much more relevant than watches. So pick a side mods.
