Coming on Lemmy and complaining in ShowerThoughts that there are too many Lemmy users complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers
More like going into a church and complaining there are too many hookers
If every prostitute approached you and had to tell you how much better she is at something than your current SO/wife, you should ditch your SO in favor of prostitutes, even though you’re not there for service.
Then it would be like Lemmy.
More like a bar with too many drunk people. It is understandable that they are there and its also expected that there are sober people there but it gets annoying when the drunk people keep spilling alcohol on you. Tho i dont its it that bad.
Yeah, I agree Linux is actually just a really solid OS
Yeah, your’s is more accurate XD I have to say that there are people that get annoying when they’re drunk but thank god they’re not the majority otherwhise going to the bar would be unbearable.
I’d never used Linux before getting a Steam Deck. It’s now my preferred PC. But it’s also super-duper polished and painless.
I have always liked Windows, but I’m always two versions behind and have never actually experienced any other OS. I’m open to Linux, but it also scares the shit out of me because I’ll essentially go back to knowing fuck all about the OS on my PC.
And I’ve also heard gaming can be complicated on Linux, whether or not that’s true.
Most games are ok, big online games are usually not (anything that has kernel level anti cheat, straight up bans Linux, or uses a third party launcher that doesn’t have much support on Linux). Usually can be overcome, but can result in a ban. For those games, you can either dual boot or virtualize Windows (which also can get u banned).
Tons of games have Proton support (check ProtonDB). If you select a stable distro and don’t install custom stuff, you should be good without knowing much besides hitting Update all button from time to time and pasting any error message you get into your preferred search engine. Hell you can install SteamOS and be eternally happy.
I hope you aren’t running EOL software. You aren’t running EOL software right?
I’m on Windows 10 currently, so not quite two versions behind, but I held onto XP and 7 for ages.
Just keep in mind you have until Oct of next year to migrate. Either go for Windows 11, Linux or Mac OS.
You can’t safely stay. Don’t sacrifice your own security because of some personal vendetta against Microsoft. Windows 11 is very similar to Windows 10.
No idea what that is, but probably not. Pretty much just stuff from the Discover thing. The biggest thing is Blender, also from the Discover.
Discover is the KDE app center. However, that’s not relevant to Windows.
I disagree because I’d still be having a good time at the brothel.
Don’t break the illusion
Can I complain there are not enough Linux users?
Yes that was always allowed
Only for a while, because I heard that it’s the year of Linux on the desktop this year, so… I guess the rest of the world will join us pretty soon.
It’s contagious. I caught the Linux over the weekend. It’s the Kubuntu strain of the disease, so I think it’s a mild case. But there’s always a risk it can spread to full-blown Arch.
Don’t forget to enable the wobbly Windows. It prevent distro hoping.

Unfortunately, it seems that your case is
terminal
Stop it. Now. This is not tolerated in this thread and if I see you post another one like this, I will report you. People don’t give a Debian what you think is funny. I Mint it. serious frowny face serious red arrow pointing at serious frowny face /jk
I don’t care how many people use it, but it seems to pop up (unwarranted) in darned near every sub I’m in. Enjoying something is fine, but it’s best to not let any single thing become your identity or define you as a person.
That’s me but with US politics, I blocked a few communities and moved on.
exactly what a windows user would say
k
Yep. Better to get to the finish line of life with no identity whatsoever. Life is meant to be left unlived.
What?
Leaves grow upward because they would die in the depths, just as roots would die in the air.
like, how many Star Trek communities do you need, right?
Never enough
when she looks a little further and finds out that you are cheeting
but not on her, just in the game you convinced her to play with you.
Do people REALLY complain about Linux? There are nutters everywhere but I don’t think this is really a thing.
No it isn’t a thing, I’ve seen a couple memes and a new community about how Linux sucks but I’m pretty sure it’s either parody or trolling. Mine was an actual shower thought when I was thinking about that, rather than a complaint
Complaining that linux sucks, and complaining that there are too many linux users is two vastly different things. I think linux sucks, but I also wish there were more users because then there would be more programs for it, and it would also be better.
Yeah, I kind of agree here. I’d love to switch to Linux as my every day driver, but some things keep me tied to windows. Gaming is getting better on Linux by the day, but I still can’t use Ableton on Linux, and that’s basically a deal breaker for me. I think the newest Push has Linux support though, so who knows? Maybe one day.
I like Linux. I like Linux users. I don’t like people who think Linux is the only viable OS to use, though. That’s just obnoxious and exhausting.
So theres BSD, truth.
Yeah FreeBSD exists
WRONG Arch is the only right distro
This person uses arch by the way
And they’re vegan.
And asexual
100% their bike is a fixie and they lock it in front of their office building, it’s the only bike on that bike rack, because they like to show how cool they think they are.
I use Ubuntu, btw.
Mint FTW!
TempleOS is the true Operating System

I came hoping the hotties would be free, and to download a car.
I don’t understand why anybody would complain about that. It’s like complaining that too many people wear jeans.
Maybe because jeans wearers don’t spam up every thread about clothing with “JUST WEAR JEANS!”
They propably would if a common topic of discussion was “this is how leggings have got worse today”
I’ve only been on lemmy for a short time but I haven’t seen any Linux users spamming any threads that way. This complaint is the first sign I’ve seen that anybody even has that idea. It reminds me of crusty old farts who see a gay character in a sitcom and say OMG it’s all about the gays now!!!
Because any post can be turned into a Linux post here.
Much like how Linux can be run on anything!
Unless its something that can’t be done in a browser! Then whip out the Linux bible and download wine and virtualbox because you’re using windows baby!
I honestly cannot tell you the last time I ran windows to do anything. Like I’ll have to do some tinkering on the steam deck soon for the first time in a long time to get the sims playing for my SO, but that is still way easier then maintaining another whole OS, especially like windows where they hit my fam with UX updates that piss them off.
How else are you going to play FreeDoom if you can’t get Linux to run on it?
I think OP is confusing the fact that people are sick of Linux users preaching with people using Linux.
I agree. It’s like thinking you know all about a person because of their car.
Speaking of, I recently switched to Linux, do the thigh high socks just show up or do I have to order them myself?
If you use arch you have to start knitting
And with Gentoo you have to spin your own yarn before the knitting 😁
But you can tune the specifications of the yarn to theoretically make the socks up to 2% more comfy. In practice your tuning efforts will make the socks less comfortable and tear more easily.
And with LFS, you need to breed, raise the sheep and then shear them yourself before you get to spin and knit the socks…
You have to find the shop and pay some gold, but when you equip them you get +2 programming and can be combined with BLÅHAJ for +2 gender euphoria.
You unlock them once you enter your 10,000th terminal command.
I just checked my
history, 21110. And there was more that got cut off before I increased the history length. Are they supposed to come each Christmas or something because I don’t have them yet.Just read the Arch wiki. It’s clearly explained there. Fuckin’ noob. Thread locked.
Does repeating commands count or do they have to be entered manually?
It’s rather a r9k kind of deal
Better get to work then, its gonna be a cold winter.
You need to be a naughty slut that deserves a spanking for that to appear.
You get a choice of free maid/nurse/lab assistant outfit as well.
Yep, as written in the manuscript:
“Stallman’s Sluts and Torvalds’ Thots,
shall all receive some thigh-high socks.”This should be on a metal plate somewhere
Lemmy users are hookers confirmed
