Why do people still recommend Thinkpads for Linux when there are Linux-oriented manufacturers now?
Why do people still recommend Thinkpads for Linux when there are Linux-oriented manufacturers now?
I've noticed in the Linux community whenever someone asks for a recommendation on a laptop that runs Linux the answer is always "Get a Thinkpad" yet Lenovo doesn't seem to be a big Linux contributor or ally. There's also at least six Linux/FOSS-oriented computer manufacturers now:
So what gives? Why the love for a primarily Windows-oriented laptop when there are better alternatives?
You're viewing a single thread.
#1 reason, easier to convince businesses to purchase them in bulk; also getting a time tested model makes IT feel more comfortable that they can manage the devices appropriately.
Why are you shouting?

Seems like someone is new with Markdown notation haha :-)
You probably tried to write "number 1 [...]" but the hash (#) converted your whole text to a Heading level 1.
I'm very aware of markdown I use every day for work. The thing is I assumed they where referring to the way the text appeared to them. But out of the 3 different clients I use for Lemmy on mobile, the mobile site via chrome and the desktop site via chrome none of them render comments in markdown for me. So how are you all seeing markdown rendered in comments on lemmy? Everyone just assumes what they see is what everyone sees.
Fair enough, I was only joking haha. I'm using both Sync and Eternity (known as Infinity for Lemmy) and both clients render Markdown. Can't say for others clients. Seems like not every client see the same thing...
Good to know, looks like a few clients do render the markdown in comments.
