Well you and me, plus 15 other people from the 60000 downloads are the only Linux users it seems.
Yeah the Linux fanbase is rather small, but I guess that's because there's a lot to learn. A lot of people wouldn't be willing to learn, and most people would simply just be too lazy since you have extra hoops to jump though. I prefer this though, I even went the advanced way of trying LFS, and my next step is to keep a text file of each installed dependency to compare against BLFS with some programming. I'm not very good at programming, but it's something I'll have to learn if I want to make this package manager.

I don't mean to add to the controversy but, as a black man, the only thing that I find offensive here is that someone saw that enemy and immediately thought of black people. I mean, do we look like that to you?
I surely never saw this blue guy as a racial caricature...
But yeah, let's blame the whites like those Twitter fellas, surely being racist to others will end racism towards us.

The fact that anyone even associated the sprite with the racist depiction of a black person proves that most likely they themselves have some issues with black people because what sane person would even try to connect a blue limbless pirate with a black race?
This is true, people would insert politics into just about anything these days...
Like I said though, if kids these days grow up sheltered in a world where everything is censored, they will grow up to be offended by absolutely everything, since they're not seeing the real world for what it is. Racists and the likes still exist, and all that's happening is people are trying to mask it. For example, censoring something in a remake of a game from 1995 that a couple of people somehow see as racist isn't going to bring us world peace. It would be better if some people could just ignore whoever/whatever is bothering them since this is the only logical solution.
That being said, I think I should move on from this too now.
