My guy, you are on linuxmemes lmao

[-] HKayn@dormi.zone 118 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I came here hoping to see gnome and X11 memes. You know, actual Linux memes.

Instead I found "Windows bad" circlejerking.

Distros and package managers are bad. Reject modernity, embrace compiled source. Burn Lennart Pottering at the stake!

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 17 points 2 years ago

Gentoo and Arch is for wanabees, the hardcore use Linux From Scratch as their distro.

[-] intelati@programming.dev 8 points 2 years ago

These are the memes I come for

[-] insomniac@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

You need a book to tell you how to install Linux? I guess we were all a noob at one point.

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

There's many steps to remember when you have to first create your building environment before you can compile all the basic components for your own distro, and it's always good when you manually lookup configure and compile your dependencies, I know it's all excuses for not memorising the steps but there you go.

I don't think the bank will accept "I need to install Firefox" as the reason for a loan to pay my electricity bill.

Joking aside though, Gentoo was a great experience for me to learn how Linux actually works.

[-] seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

I never got it running, but I definitely learned some things. I need to try it again someday when I have a lot of free time and a spare laptop.

[-] TechieDamien@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago

Can't forget to bash snaps too!

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

Systemd also bad!

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 44 points 2 years ago

No, I'm on All, but a far higher percentage than most other content is just the same message in slightly different words on repeat, "Linux good, Binbows bad."

[-] littlecolt@lemm.ee 52 points 2 years ago

But have you heard the latest hilarious thing? Windows... BAD! Hahaha! My goodness, I'm sure you never could have imagined. Also, I use Arch, in case you were wondering.

[-] manefraim@lemmy.world 36 points 2 years ago

Binbows isn't that bad, it's Michaelsoft as a company we should worry about.

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

No, Iโ€™m on All

Hi on All, i'm the post of tom joad

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

There's like 6 of em hah

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

Why do so many memes seem to be about windows then? ๐Ÿค”

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

It's kind of hard to tell since the Linux memes are in all the other communities as well.

[-] EuroNutellaMan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Well that's because Lemmy needs more users

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They're not gonna get any if we keep making all communities about hating Microsoft Windows and capitalism.

[-] Rubennaatje@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago

They could use some memes making fun of our community instead of making fun of the rest.

Let's be honest, Linux isn't a viable option for a big portion of society. I love working in Linux but it's not perfect for those that aren't techsavy and need more than a browser.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Linux Mint is absolutely usable by most of the population. What it isn't good at is business sector stuff because that entire sector is captured by Microsoft and its proprietary ecosystem. If interoperability was the focus, it wouldn't be an issue. But capturing the population is the goal, so companies get these anti-user designs that lock you into their ecosystems. Maybe you need centralized development to achieve stuff like Azure and all its capabilities.

[-] seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

LibreOffice can take care of the business stuff. Or, Hell, just Google Docs.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.
