Why is everybody hating on him ?
echochambers and then left will complain why they are loosing
This seals it, I should never use Linux again.
Wait, this guy is still around and relevant?
He came back with his vlog channel after he left due to something about support Nazism?, I’m guessing he’s trying to come back in some form or another, the money is too addictive.but I doubt he would make a big impact, he can’t compete with the current top tubers.
I’m not sure anyone really cares about PewDiePie anymore, let alone what OS he uses.
The people who care have always done so. They’re just 25 now. This is relevant to his target audience.
hes trying to come back as youtuber, eventhough he “retired”, (due to being supportive of nazis)
I’m not a tech guy
- Installs Arch
- Installs Hyperland
- Makes custom animated ASCII art for NeoFetch
- Makes custom bash script for his sponsor spot
- Creates a completely custom reactor-themed desktop
Yeah I think he’s a tech guy…he just doesn’t know how to build computers (that was painful to watch).
By saying he’s not a tech guy probably just means he’s not a programmer. But with how he’s done everything he definitely has the chops to be one.
He seems to be a guy that really likes to tinker with things. And those are the kind of people that Linux, especially arch, really latches onto.
I remember when he played minecraft and made a redstone contraption to auto-feed villagers or something. He started by saying that he wasn’t good at redstone and proceeds to show something so complex that I would have to follow a tutorial to make it.
He has a degree in industrial engineering according to Wikipedia, logical thinking should come naturally to him. My high school decades ago teaches logic gates for it’s computer literacy curriculum. He might not be a programmer, but probably has exposure to these topics in general education.
I mean no offence to you. But education departments these days assume “kids have phones and iPads and must be computer geniuses” and stop teaching general computer courses. That’s a problem.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he paid someone else to do all that lol
My windows partition forced me to do an update which has now broken the start menu and right clicking on pinned icons. Thanks Microsoft. Great job.
I really can’t wait to be rid of it completely but unfortunately the building and construction industry is addicted to torture and refuses to move on from Autodesk.
I’ve never watched any of his videos. They just don’t appeal to me and never have. However, given his apparent fame, it’s good for linux.
The more people acknowledge linux’s existence, the more engagement, the more growth.
Here’s hoping someday Windows will be a nasty memory.
His original shtick when he was the biggest tuber was yelling at his streams.
The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point
original joke
First i need to know what Katy Perry thinks about linux
Good point. We peasents don’t even know what love is, let alone Linux.
I hear Hannah Montana is a fan.
TempleOS is the one true distro.
But its not Linux…
And Ja Rule
Ik ur being sarcastic but if i were someone who worked on linux id be pretty proud
I wonder if glam Linux will run on Debian.
Glamux.
That’s great, I hate it.
“If you’re presenting yourself with confidence, you can pull off pretty much anything. Except convincing people you have a brain"
Seems like PewDiePie is a lot more open-minded than a lot of Windows users lol
Yes, Linux is king. More stable, better hardware utilization. Better customizability. Linux just makes more sense.
More stable
Wellllll, I wouldn’t go that far.
I just had to reboot because clicking anything in the browser randomly started sending the CPU utilisation to higher 70s, which was triggering the fans to spin at full power.
Then I ran a game on Steam and Steam said it’s running, but it was nowhere to be found. Had to reboot again.
Both of these happened completely randomly after I changed nothing, just browsing the web.
You dont have to restart your Computer, you can also just kill a task.
To make it simple use something like mission center
Steam said it was running
Probably updating the client in the background, for some reason this is the default updating behavior on Linux unlike the visible progress bar on Windows
More stable, haha. I was just randomly surfing around and my computer goes to sleep and can’t wake up.
Also randomly, my computer won’t go into sleep mode when I close my laptop. It works about 90% of the time, but that 10% is when I pull my laptop out of my laptop bag and my computer is on fire and fans full blast trying to cool itself. The OS came from IBM installed.
Of course this gets downvoted… Linux shilling is insane
It’s hilarious of these folks defending this low life. How sad. Don’t give a moment of your life to an awful human being. And stop advertising for them for free. Get paid.
Seems like he’s trying coming back to relevancy because the money was too good back then, can’t do much in Japan outside of vlogging about living there.
it’s been 8 years man, people change
But your assuming he changed and not learned how to disguise his behavior better, which he’s doing with his vlogs. I don’t people look past his support for Nazis and shilling for youtube
Looking into who this person is and seeing multiple apology video of stuff we evolved from multiple decades ago…… he has much to learn still.
as long as he grew from those mistakes and became a better person (as he evidently has) he deserves another chance, not that all that should be forgot (ofc not) but people learn from their mistakes and why should we let a few edgy jokes from 2015-2016 (which he evidently regrets) let us regard him in 2025 any differently?
Let’s hope for the best!
OTOH the idea that Windows tortured pewdiepie seems like a point in its favor.
Broken clocks are still right twice a day.
Should we really care about that guy’s opinion?
No, fuck this guy.
He still has the 10th most subscribed channel on Youtube, him endorsing Linux is huge due to the reach he has. His video has 3.2 million views, other content creators are making their reaction videos to his video. You don’t have to like him to see how big this is for Linux.
I honestly think a lot less if Linux at this point… Not because of him, but because of comments like this, and the upvotes they have.
Fuck Linux.
Based contrarian for the sake of it mindset
Imagine thinking you’re so important that others should care about your opinion.
From what I know, pewdiepie 2025 is nothing like old pewdiepie. Used to review memes, now makes vlogs with his wife and kid while enjoying new life in Japan. Basically retired
Has he done any pro gamer moves lately?
I mean, he switched to Linux and has advocated for gamers to do the same. So… Maybe?
Hey Lois this is like that one time I said a gamer word flashback to the bridge
This guy has a major following. He could be the next world leader because of brain rotted voters. I have seen kids obsessed this guy, like he could do no wrong. Now those kids are adults. That is pretty difficult to ignore for me.
I’d take him over Trump if those were the choices in an election I had a say in tbh.
Wouldn’t take him over someone with experience and sane policies, but definitely better than the MAGA folks.
At least he reads books and tries to improve himself on the regular XD
Apparently he’s Swedish, so he’s ineligible. I have no idea what his policies are.
I’m not American either. It was an extremely hypothetical scenario.

Swedes who move to Japan are in my experience pretty damn far-right leaning (as in, wants to be able to wear their SS cosplay uniform and wear swastika pins in public).
Ok, this is frankly racist and immensely stupid. If you are going to judge him, do it based on his character. You have plenty of things to criticize about him, but him moving to Japan is not an issue. Jesus…

Honestly youre more likely to be the common denominator here than any swedes moving to japan.
You might just be a nazi magnet. Ever looked yourself in the mirror and thought, ‘wow thats some nice stainless paneling?’
What? NRM? or the other fascist scums?
Swedes arent a race dumdumb.
deleted by creator
Nobody said that but you though lol
Ah yes because they are equally bad
generally no, but its healthy for the market to have more linux
Yes, absolutely yes
We shouldn’t give a shit about any social media influencer or celebrity or whatever’s opinion. Cool that he is promoting the change to Linux. And at least he uses a computer. But yeah, fuck em.
If you’re a boomer, no
