- 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.

3. Post Linux-related content

Why is "ios" the only one not in all-caps? Why does the apple hq list their mobile system while the other two list their desktop/workstation/server systems? Why does each get a different proportion of the screen/why aren't they equally sized/why are they not stacked vertically? Why is this man not using dark mode, and how is the obvious and glaring light bleed at the bottom-left of his monitor just get accepted?
This picture, it frustrates me on many levels.
Pretty sure "That man" is Linus Torvalds and the light bleed is actually the desktop background (looks like a photo)
As for the rest.. 🤷
Why don’t you tell us about it?
iOS begins with a lower-case 'i', making this error more frequent.
Apple's most iconic product is the iPhone, but the meme compares software. So the 'Apple'-item then becomes iOS.
The rule of three applies to jokes and typically dictates that the punchline is third and given extra emphasis. The layout reflects that tradition.
From what I've seen, Linus Thorvalds uses default work environments and doesn't care much about hardware beyond functionality.
Also, the Linux man is using windows (default windows background plus windows explorer open).
Edit: yes, I was wrong. For every downvote this gets, I'll install a distro without systemd in another computer.
Edit 2: y'all making me spend all my money on Void Linux licenses...
Looks like he's using gnome, you can tell by the top bar. Also Linux man is Linus Torvalds and last I heard he used fedora. Which checks out since it uses gnome as default.
Huh, it seems you're right. I guess I've been using plasma/hyprland for too long x_x
I didn't recognize him, he looks so different when he's not angrily flipping someone off.
You better say you use Arch before you get banned.
It is in my bio! Come on!
Not everyone likes dark mode. I can’t speak for Linus, but dark mode seriously bothers my eyes.
And the weird-ass border probably due to the piss poor crop job (why not save the image instead of taking a screenshot?). I don’t know how people live like this.
