People don't seriously try to use Kali as a daily driver, do they? That's just a meme, right? Right?

Fixed

What the fuck the do you have a life question is so offensive! Stop trying to just be edgy in memes!

I'm so sick of these stupid stereotypes that the Linux community has. I'll have you know that I use both Debian and Fedora and I do not in fact have a life.

Replace kali with nixos, and it'd be accurate 😁 Also, gentoo.

And Kali is more like "are you older than 13 → no"

Do you fear god?

Yes: TempleOS

No: Hannah Montana Linux

I do like privacy, but I also have a VR headset so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ windows it is

Why are both Debian and Debian: Kidz Edition on there?

Am I stupid. Most Linux users I know are more paranoid about tech than anyone else

I have been using the same Arch installation for about 8 years. The initial installation/configuration is the only time consuming part. Actual day-to-day usage is extremely easy.

Maybe this is no longer the case but I previously used Ubuntu and it was actually much more annoying in comparison, especially when upgrading between major revisions or needing to track down sources/PPAs for packages not in the main repos. Or just when you want something more up-to-date than what they're currently shipping.

The rolling release model + the AUR saves so much time and prevents a lot of headaches.

Ubuntu has caused me far more headaches and downtime than Arch. Go figure.

And to make this be a worthwhile comment: I wonder if it is because I use Arch (and derivatives) that Ubuntu causes issues. When something isn't right, I try and fix it. In Arch I can. In Ubuntu it seems like a dozen paper cuts to get there and it may not work in the long run anyway. Oh the Snap doesnt have foo compiled in? No problem I can add it to the snap directory. No, that didnt work. Ok I will remove it and bring in a .deb file. Dependencies not met. Fine, I will compile it from source..... and by that time I have wasted a TON of time.

I don't get all the Apple hate from the Linux community. Out of the box you have a fully usable *NIX machine

they even switched the default shell to zsh! No advertising in the Start menu, and ssh (client and server) included by default. Install homebrew and boom

tmux, htop, nload, lolcats.....most of your favorite tools can be installed easy as on any linux distro.

I use Debian for personal use, and I much prefer it...but basically only because I prefer i3 to the Mac GUI.

read fedora as facebook and then just imagined facebook putting out a facebook distro

Accurate for a Linux meme, yes.

Accurate in real life? No.

Ubuntu shouldn't be with those who care about privacy. Snap is completely integrated into Ubuntu now.

They're going to be just as bad as Apple, Google or Microsoft if they're given the market share. Corporations care only about one thing.

Hey I'm on Ubuntu because I'm lazy, not because I have a life

I fear technology, but in the "Technology will destroy us all unless we get a really good handle on it" kind of way. I use debian.

No, not accurate. NixOS isn't anywhere in there

Please describe "having a life".

I don't understand why Windows is on the "no" side of "do you fear technology?"

i’m gonna get crucified for giving apple a single benefit of a doubt but i think there are just as many windows users who “fear technology” as mac ones. think of all the grandparents running shitty dollar store pcs. mac is only a walled sandbox until you turn off the safeguards, then you can see exactly as much dumb back-end shit as you can on windows

Arch has been more of a "just works" distro for me than OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, Debian and Fedora.
Arch Installation nowadays goes like this:

iwctl  
device list  
station *device* scan  
station *device* get-networks  
station *device* connect *SSID*  
archinstall

And you only need the first 5 lines if you're installing from wifi.

Okay what is the Tux Jigsaw Puzzle one?

Also Gentoo?

I actually switched to openSUSE Tumbleweed from Ubuntu and love it. I know it's not as popular, but I can't see why. Rolling release, compatibility, support, it's awesome!

archinstall

What if you don't fear technology, have no life, and are technologically behind and don't understand what anything but the apple and windows symbols are? I recognize the penguin from an EEE PC that I had like 15 years ago, but that's it.

*Sorry I also recognize Google, just not immediately apparently.
