Woke liberals are trying to cancel Jesus because the wood he was crucified on was not vegan wood.

I don't disagree with you whatsoever... I'd however like to also mention that people like "veganteacher" need to stop equating feeding your child some steak to rape...

Both are shitposts, bruh. One is literally a shitpost from a prominent shitposter. (What, you really think Trump and Biden were making out during the debate?) The other is a shitpost targeted to fuck with a particular community, in a manner that's intentionally provocative; Mockery and Amusement, and ironically, trollishly poor quality and absurd, exaggeration, etc.

The judgment from the mods should be enough for you. Their judgment very clearly makes it evident that they didn't remove it because it broke rules or wasn't a shitpost, but because people were spamming them.

Nope. It was never about saying I was funny, it was about some peoples complete lack of understanding of what a shitpost even is and spamming false reports. Why the hell do you think I used multiple examples from prominent shitposters.

That's not a shitpost, that's a basic meme that took effort to make and come up with, it's only absurd for comedic effect & low-effort. It's not trollishly low-quality, nor meet enough of the other key hallmarks to condone qualifying as a shitpost.

^Actual shitpost, AI generated image with text slapped on it. Another example is the common "all Linux users are femboys" memes/inside joke. They are intentionally poor quality, absurd, and designed to provoke reactions with minimal effort. The "average X fan vs average Y enjoyer" meme is another good example of a shitpost. It's intentionally provocative through its absurd comparison and exaggeration.

"aggressively, ironically, and trollishly poor quality... cause the biggest reaction with the least effort. ...internet mockery... ...absurd... ...confusing... ...awkward and irrelevant..."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shitposting

My post that was unfairly removed was intentionally provocative (Oxford), and ironically, trollishly poor quality (Wikipedia) and exaggeration, just as the example shitposts provided are.

provocative ≠ inflammatory

Provocative : causing annoyance, anger, or another strong reaction, especially deliberately. Inflammatory : deliberately arousing or intended to arouse angry or violent feelings.

(Oxford)

Provocative in the context of shitpost essentially means deliberately causing a strong reaction usually via exaggeration for comedic effect. While Inflammatory just means to deliberately insight violence usually via slander or liable.

Another shitpost for example :

This meets : intentionally provocative (Oxford), and ironically, trollishly poor quality and absurd, exaggeration, etc. (Wikipedia).

The funny thing is, it had over 100 up votes and only a handful of down votes. People must have been spamming.

System76 is no stranger to desktop development nor Rust-lang. Their team is relatively large, skilled, diverse, and highly dedicated, with years of experience in high-level and low-level development, UX/UI design, and even an OS built from scratch (Redox OS), and so on. Unlike elementary OS's Pantheon, which builds upon existing frameworks like GTK & forked Gnome components, Cosmic (Epoch) is entirely written from scratch, toolkits and all. System76's approach is also more comprehensive and ambitious compared to elementary OS. They're developing native Rust applications like the COSMIC app store, terminal, screenshot tool, and text editor. Early performance tests show promising results, even in virtual environments. The company's financial resources also allow for significant investment in COSMIC's development, supporting a dedicated team and a long-term vision. This contrasts with elementary OS's more gradual, community-driven growth. Pop_OS! is also an already very popular distribution, and importantly popular amongst newbies. System76 is also a hardware vendor meaning they can tightly integrate Cosmic with their hardware, and in fact do so much more easily than what they've already been doing with Pop_OS!. Compared to ElementaryOS, System76 is in a much better position.
