Can you just quit with this inane style of posting, littered with juvenile swipes like this: > Crapple > Keep coping apple fanboy > it's not "your iCrap" > winblows > Clownflare We've had to ask you to observe the guidelines before, and if anything your comments are only getting worse. HN is only a place where people want to participate because (at least some) others make an effort to keep the standards up. You seem…
I have created tons of posts which reached at top. The quality of HN members has deteriorated, stop calling me out. I can have my own acronyms, stop censoring my comments
The guidelines apply to equally everyone, and plenty of users who post highly-ranking submissions take care to observe the guidelines and contribute positively to the community in all their posts.
People have been proclaiming the decline of HN's quality since months after its inception. It still keeps growing, and most importantly, keeps becoming a better place for showcasing new projects.
Everyone can make the choice about whether their role on HN will be to raise the standards or to drag them downwards. The choice is yours, but consider that some of the users downvoting and flagging your comments are notable for consistently making the most positive contributions to HN over the long term.

Go ahead, ban my account. I wouldn't expect any less censoring from a VC-funded AI slop link site. Slashdot, phoronix, lesswrong, lobsters have far better posts and users anyway and none of them have a for-profit anti-privacy VC slop behind it!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You’re welcome to email us if you have any further suggestions.
Edit: I seemed flippant but I am serious. If you want the site to be better, engage with us to help us make it better. Also consider: would the operators of those sites you praise (all of whom we respect) want you to “contribute” to them the way you do here at your worst?

x86 Thinkpads + Fedora work great. Hardware support out the box is almost perfect (I would say perfect because I don’t recall anything not working, but I may be missing something). In fact, Thinkpads used to have Fedora as an OS option, which is why I think the support is so good. Outside that maybe something like system 76. They advertise 14h for one of their models.
x86 Thinkpads is what I am gravitating towards as well. Regarding system76 I have heard really good things about their workstations but not about laptops. Have you used them? I recommend PopOS to anyone getting started with linux as the first distro though.
I have not used their laptops. You’ll find the usual complaints about their fit and finish on the web, mostly because they are rebranded cleo’s. But I think everything else considered they get positive reviews outside of that.
