From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
Rules
- Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
- No misinformation
- No NSFW content
- No hate speech, bigotry, etc

How you treat people is a whole different subject matter. I made no judgements about that.
This discussion is entirely on a queer person calling themselves queer in their Ubuntu-something profile. The impacts that has, and the impact concealing that information has.
It's okay to be indifferent to queerness like you would be indifferent to race. My point is they should be free to express who they are.
