I just don’t know why I keep clicking on the memes. I don’t know anything about Linux, I know I’m not gonna get it, but I keep opening them and being confused. It’s like when I try to understand the code in programmer humor like it’s suddenly gonna click. Or ich_iel. I don’t speak German. What was up with all the noodles? I still don’t know!
I stg, 80% of my time on this site is just clicking stuff I know will confuse me but I can’t stop.
The path to enlightenment seems clear. All aboard the Linux train.
Choo Choo!
I’ve thought about it and then I remember that I’m pretty dumb about stuff that doesn’t interest me much, so it would have to be a situation where someone else was like, “here’s your linux computer, I already set up all your stuff and your games all work.”
Ah yeah I was only messing really. There is no reason for 90% of people to switch to Linux if they’re happy with Windows or MacOs and I say this as someone who’s solely been using Linux for nearly 20 years now.
Sure, it’s a great operating system but honestly most people just don’t…give a shit.
Give it a year or so. I may give more of a shit when Win10 hits EOL because I really don’t want 11.
Your new game is making the linux computer work.
Freedom is a confusing emotion.
I use Linux since 2008 and I don’t get most of the Linix Memes as well. :) I also know German as a native language and don’t get most of the ich_iel stuff. You are not alone.
I thought that was a sub for people who didn’t like that they were eels or something.
That describes 80% of my path to becoming a Linux admin.
Meme is a lie. Linux is tofu. It absorbs whatever flavor you hope, but only after performing tasks and you still want the other thing sometimes.
I had a conversation with a friend last night and he was talking about something Linux related and I accidentally contributed to the conversation. I immediately thought “god dammit Lemmy”.
Also, let’s not forget…
Best Linux Distro: Arch
Worst Linux Distro: Believe it or not, also Arch
I loved running Arch, but I run mint because I don’t have the time for Arch.

Kid: “Mom, can we have Linux?”
Mom: “We have Linux at home!”
Linux at home:
Instead of daemons, it’s angels.
No, it’s church services
Jesux, the distribution that will not lead you into temptation
Just port TempleOS for modern architecture and use that, you filthy heathen
I wonder if there’s anything doing actual production written in Holy C.
Mental illness, and, you know, the whole God thing aside, Terry Davis was one dedicated motherfucker. As crude as templeOS is, the shit he did to create it is pretty impressive.
I’m too afraid to install it for fear of bursting into flames tho.
Very brilliant, very sick man.
HOW DARE YOU REMOVE JEEBUS FROM MAH OS!!! SINNER!!!
No encryption provided; Christians have nothing to hide
I actually 100% support this. Let’s make sure every church only uses HTTP and does not hash their passwords.
After all…what do they have to hide?
I once met someone back in school (eons ago) that was both a devout Born-again Christian and wildly enthusiastic Linux user. I once remarked that I personally witnessed him convert more people to Linux than Christianity.
Stupid teenage me didn’t mean to come of as so savage, but judging by the look on his face, I think that broke him a little. :(
Are you not entertained?
The Jehovah’s witness of lemmy
Hey have you heard about Arch?
Did you read the sign on my front door? No distro solicitors. Get off my lawn.
How many of us get to go to Linux heaven?
After much dedicated and persistent blocking of communities, I don’t see much Linux on lemmy anymore. But I don’t see much on lemmy anymore.
Posting on an open-source platform and being surprised by the amount of people who talk about an open-source operating system is something.
It is definitely a thing. I would categorize it as such. I’d dare say it is one of the things of all time.
more evidence that we do live in a society…
You can block instances and communities on a lot of lemmy apps now.
Cleans things up very nicely.
You can’t block it. It has spread everywhere, in every post.
4% baby. 4%.
Even in this one
It is the world you see when you look outside Windows. When you upvote memes. When you read your inbox. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
One could argue that memes and having a sense of humor is reflection of our society
Trying to prove it by contributing to it here?
OP made a Lemmy app
Maybe they should ask other developers how they managed to do the block instance/comminity feature.
God damn. I was murdered in public.
Et tu, Mastengwe?
Even better, you can filter in certain apps (Like Sync, please don’t beat me to death, FOSSies) so anything mentioning GNU, Linux, whatever is removed.
Yup. I have everything anime, Linux, Unix, etc filtered out.
Clearly it didn’t work if you’re here
Do you see Linux/unix/anime in the title of the post?
Ubuntu has been added though, if that makes you happy.
I want to be her. Where can I find someone to spoon-feed me Linux?
Try Ubuntu. I switched to it from Windows. It worked on my laptop with no issues or needing to install (or learn how to install) any extra stuff
I already did all that. I had a Lenovo ThinkPad from 2018-2024 (RIP it died) completely Linux/Ubuntu but I really didn’t know how to use it. I just used it like windows. Didn’t know how to maximize its linux capabilities.
Try doing an installation of Arch, following the guide and searching how to do things as you go. It teaches a lot of things.
*GNU/Linux
I use GNU/Linux btw
… or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux
I can sing you a song about free software
SuSE has the best songs.
People open to change are more open to new ideas and new experiences!
And if you’re not open to change, you have to eat sometime
It’s the experience x
Eh. If you can’t beat them, join them.
I use Arch BTW.
I got away after my my bachelor’s for IT, and I’m never going back.
