I'm sure they also argue with randos about systemd and down vote any posts about any desktop environments other than the one that they use.

[-] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 44 points 9 months ago

It's probably a tiling window manager. ;)

[-] msage@programming.dev 9 points 9 months ago

Heck yeah, dwm is the only truth!

[-] Octopus1348@lemy.lol 7 points 9 months ago

Downvoted for funny.

[-] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Anything less than the full unmodded suckless suite is unacceptable

Even if it's the same DE/WM still downvote them, because they're using it wrong.

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 68 points 9 months ago

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as X, is in fact, X11/X.Org, or as I've recently taken to calling it, X11 plus X.Org. X11 is not an display server unto itself, but rather a free protocol of a fully functioning X.Org system ...

[-] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 15 points 9 months ago

I took it to mean, people who says "I use *, BTW" so like, "I use Arch BTW" "I use Reddit BTW" "I program in HTML, BTW". Maybe I'm thinking of this wrong, BTW.

[-] lseif@sopuli.xyz 6 points 9 months ago

i though the same thing before reading other comments

[-] mrvictory1@lemmy.world 40 points 9 months ago

No, I spend my time judging others' choice of software. /s

solve for x

x = arch

that's pretty much all I've seen here

[-] jrs100000@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Oh thank God. I thought they were bragging about using Twitter.

I use x btw

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 months ago

Also using X btw, because I haven't figured out how to get two mouse cursors on Wayland yet 😅

[-] Spiralvortexisalie@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

All my homies hate wayland, what kind of desktop isn’t a file

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 11 points 9 months ago

Why not Mastodon?

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

I didn't even think about the name of that shitty platform when I jokingly wrote that. Let me be clear that I do NOT use X, btw.

[-] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

I use a computer btw

[-] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Holy smokes. Surely no one on lemmy would announce that they still use x! That place is a disaster!

[edit] oh. I get it now. They just meant they don't think Wayland is ready yet. Sorry.

[-] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 8 points 9 months ago

I use Wayland, BTW.

[-] intelisense@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago

No matter what the post is I suggest they should just use Linux instead.

It’s better than anything else in the universe.

[-] EatATaco@lemm.ee 15 points 9 months ago

"I use lube the masturbate"

"You should just use Linux instead. It's better than anything else in the universe." -sturlabragason, definitely

[-] dezmd@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

What do you use, sand?

I use Arch btw.

[-] octopus_ink@lemmy.ml 8 points 9 months ago

Finally a reference to arch btw that I can not roll my eyes at. Should be a sticky post.

[-] TimeSquirrel@kbin.melroy.org 7 points 9 months ago

I use Debian btw

[-] davidgro@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Wayland is still too broken for him?

[-] SuDmit 5 points 9 months ago

First I somehow understood it like X as ex-twitter, and was like, "whoa, never saw it, bit interesting and kinda unique". Then made connection to Arch, and finally then to X11 /xorg. Huh

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

At least they don't base their personality around hating a person or group

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 11 points 9 months ago

We collectively hate windows.

Ubuntu ain't broke, usually, so I don't fix it.

[-] dukatos@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

I use FreeBSD, BTW

[-] Shayeta@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

I've been daily driving the same Arch installation at work without any issues... for the past five years.

  • 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.
    • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
