i can't parse your sentence

just type shit on this forum an someone will understand

and you know some people avoid writing here because they know they will be censored and they also avoid writing here because they know if they do they will be mobbed and harrazed by the Left/BLM people.

so lets see what kind of person you really are after my high level intel in the last post hit your brain.

Before you even strike on me, I am completely against those modern movements and fully aware of the situation.
I abhor the Contributor Covenant (and similar documents), changes made in the name of being "inclusive", usage of they/them as a gender-neutral pronoun, the behavior of modern feminists, the exaggeration of seemingly "under-represented" groups, and stuff like that.

The reason why did I delete your posts wasn't censorship. I do agree with many of your posts; you speak truth.
However, the problem is that you have triggered a total derailing of the thread (it was about Fedora but ended up being about politics), which goes against the terms of this forum.

This post ends the discussion about politics. Any further posts on this thread shall stay on topic (Fedora and distros).

"Black Lives Matter. Saying this does not mean that other lives do not matter. It should not be controversial to say this. If I say Chromium updates matter, it does not mean that other Fedora packages do not matter, it means that a Chromium update is needed to fix this giant pile of severe security vulnerabilities, here, today, now:
In making that analogy, I do not intend to trivialize BLM. In no way do I mean to compare the lives of people to a silly web browser update. People are infinitely important than software. But since I'm here to push this software update out, I am also choosing to say clearly and unambiguously that Black Lives Matter.
Open Source proves that many voices, many contributions, together can change the world. It depends on it. This is my voice."

Fedora uses Btrfs probably more so than Ubuntu does Facebook wanna shove there slime into the Distro

What is this BS? Fedora allows to use all the native/unix filesystems supported by the kernel. You're free to use ext2/ext3/ext4/jfs/xfs/whatever.

It just defaults to btrfs during installation which can be changed with a few mouse clicks.

CentOS? Hopefully Facebook can convince the packagers to put back the Plasma desktop and have more up-to-date packages. As it is, CentOS's packages on every distribution release is painfully old, and are even older than Debian. At least Debian's packages are up-to-date at the point of the first freeze, and aren't all that outdated by the time the distribution is released.

Not having Plasma (I always install both Gnome 3 and Plasma) and up-to-date packages at release is a deal-breaker.

this is where i'd worry, because Fedora uses Btrfs probably more so than Ubuntu does Facebook wanna shove there slime into the Distro

Btrfs is default on Fedora Workstation since 33 so it makes sense its usage keeps on increasing considering the benefits. Soon to be release Fedora 34 Beta Workstation gained some performances and felt snappier.
