Have you heard of our lord and saviour Arch Linux BTW
Get on the NixOS train, loser. Arch is too easy. /s
BTW!!!
This was funny the first time I saw it, back when windows 10 came out.
it's still new for gentoo users who started installing that day and decided to go with openoffice from source.
Can't wait until Windows 12 or whatever comes out and Windows 11 magically becomes the go-to version.
No this meme is from 2018
I'll be honest at this point in my life anthing that pops up it gets a 1 simply for annoying me.
I'm never randomly recommending anything unless asked and if I do when asked specifically about it the app owners sure as shit don't need to know about it
Honestly all the app owners need to know is why a customer is dissatisfied. If the app is actually good the recommendations will come naturally.
I don't disagree but when I get asked to give it a rating 2 mins after installing they can fick right off.
Thanks to bots and shills ratings mean nothing.
In most cases I just stop using something as its not as useful as i thought or just boring bugging me in this manner just makes me actively hate it.
It's annoying when I start some software to get something done and it's asking me to do a survey. I'm in the middle of something! What's wrong with you?!
The survey is administered by a cat.
This even funnier now that they've come full circle to shutting down Windows 10 - Our Last Operating System!
Linux users aren't people ;)
We're penguins
they identify as 🚺
I let a friend try out Linux after I've been using it for years and they were shocked how much easier some things are. I think the idea of throwing them into a like Windows distro is the wrong direction. I'm ready POP OS's new desktop whenever it comes out.
This is the reaction I get from people too. :)
Man I really like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE you all should try it
It's been a hot minute since I ran SuSE (before it was OpenSuSE) but since I'm distrohopping lately I might have to give it a go.
I don't have a PC right now but I'm a Mint guy.
"1994 or 2024" for 200$, Alex.
Both, obviously
You guys should try Kali Linux with KDE Plasma. I'm really enjoying it. It's so easily customizable.
Ok I installed Kali now how do I hack?
Sudo apt install sl
sl
Yes pop!_OS is ok I don't like it that much but it is a good distro
I have recently started using KDE and so far i like it after years of XFCE on slower pc. And every now and then I think about switching to some debian based distro but AUR spoiled me and now I am too lazy. Its great that with my setuo I can change distros and have working OS in under an hour with all my software already setup.
KDE ran much smoother with the same resources on my desktop, I regret not switching sooner.
I feel called out here lol. Granted, I've only recommended it to people I know who complained about the performance of windows. Linux is so much more optimised
Causally recommending linux and shutting down inane tech support questions aren't the same thing. If I get asked: "X feature stopped working in the newest macOS. What do I do?" I tell them the truth: "I switched to linux to get the feature back."
Kind of reframes the whole being a vegetarian thing...
Well, did you know I'm vegetarian and used to run Arch? If you could show me your fridge and computer, please, I'll fix them for you!
This answer is stupid. I don't think it's unusual for a non-tech savvy friend who heard about Linux to ask for an opinion.
I think it is unusual. As a software engineer who has a large circle of friends, loads of them know I use Linux, but literally no one cares or is curious about knowing more. And honestly I'm not interested in explaining. We talk about and do other things lol. I sometimes talk about differences and news about both with those who have jobs or interests closer to the IT business, and we have a short conversation about those news, but nobody asks me about Linux, and especially not Windows. It's not interesting.
If Lemmy is any example the "I use Linux" crowd is like "I'm a vegetarian".
