Greetings!

A popularity contest is based on competition and can be exclusionary. In this case, it’s not about saying “which user is better than X user”, it’s only about thanking them for their contribution (at least that’s how I have interpreted it).

I personally don’t see it as a popularity contest. I see it more as an opportunity to show appreciation to other users of this community.

😳😂

In your comments you show that you know a lot about free software, programming languages and the Fediverse in general (I have learned a lot here thanks to people like you) and you seem like a friendly person :D

You usually make very interesting comments about open source software, you are very friendly with the community, and you contribute a lot to Lemmy. So yeah, imo you deserve it :)

These are for me the most interesting users to read about (among others, I mean I would put more, but the list would be too long!)

• @sexy_peach@feddit.de

Well done here @yogthos

There’s a nice article explaining why Electron is terrible.

It’s a pity that promising projects like Elementary OS collapse due to economic issues. Clearly this would not have happened if they had been able to implement a sustainable business model, but are they going to be able to compete head to head with Microsoft and Apple in the field of operating systems?

I mean, Windows not only has a monopoly, but also has the backing of many other US companies that boycott the GNU/Linux community (Nvidia, Adobe…). It’s a shame that this has happened, and I hope that at least someone will take over Elementary OS so that the same thing that happened to Antergos doesn’t happen to it :(

Café Marx and The Deprogram. Café Marx is a podcast from Spain that gathers a few Marxists to discuss and debate about some topics related (or not) to Marxism. The Deprogram is also Marxist-leaning, but the format and contributors are very different.
