Linux is/was banned on Facebook for being malware

I’m not really up-to-date with mainstream social media, so I may be a bit late with this news, but …

The point is … Facebook runs on Linux, so following this terrible rule they should ban the whole site as it’s malware. Well … if I would like to be mean then I would say that they have spotted what their site is in fact way too late, but you know how it’s called “better now than never” … :speak_no_evil:

Is it next “AI” move towards control of the humanity by banning the smartest people or just another proof that the LLM are overrated or maybe something else? Do you think that someone was angry because their favourite Windows game worked better on Linux via wine? :thinking:

Whatever the reason is it confirms the theory that people’s stupidity is the only infinite thing in the entire universe. Just another funny IT fail news to make your everyday life a bit more happy … wait … wait … Do we have a best IT fail compilation? We have it, right? If no then that’s the biggest IT fail of all time I’ve heard about! :joy:

Happy coding! :keyboard:

Do you use a Linux terminal music player?
If so, which one? Recently I had to install Moc player on an old PC because I was searching for something with low resource consumption.
