My guy, you are on linuxmemes lmao

[-] HKayn@dormi.zone 124 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] intelati@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

These are the memes I come for

[-] insomniac@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year 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 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

Can't forget to bash snaps too!

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

Systemd also bad!

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 54 points 1 year 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 57 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

No, I’m on All

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

[-] Rubennaatje@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year 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 5 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Why do so many memes seem to be about windows then? 🤔

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

Well that's because Lemmy needs more users

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

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

  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, 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.
