I actually like Linux, but I'm considering just blocking all the Linux communities because it's so incredibly boring to just see you guys circle jerking all day long. We get it. We all get it.
I came here hoping to see gnome and X11 memes. You know, actual Linux memes.
Instead I found "Windows bad" circlejerking.
Ubuntu bad?
Distros and package managers are bad. Reject modernity, embrace compiled source. Burn Lennart Pottering at the stake!
Go gentoo and get both!
Gentoo and Arch is for wanabees, the hardcore use Linux From Scratch as their distro.
These are the memes I come for
You need a book to tell you how to install Linux? I guess we were all a noob at one point.
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.
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.
Can't forget to bash snaps too!
Systemd also bad!
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."
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.
Binbows isn't that bad, it's Michaelsoft as a company we should worry about.
I like you.
There's like 6 of em hah
It's kind of hard to tell since the Linux memes are in all the other communities as well.
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.
LibreOffice can take care of the business stuff. Or, Hell, just Google Docs.
I mean just go ahead and block it, why make this rant at all, if you are seeing it on All its because of the amount of Linux users on Lemmy.
Linux is the best OS for posting memes about Linux, cmv
Is TempleOS a joke to you?
Is it not?
No networking
As God intended.
Block it then. Don't waste your attention on posts that don't bring you joy.
We're on linuxmemes.
Then why are there so many Windows memes? :^)
This feels like an appropriate time to let you know that I use arch, btw.
Nobody asked, nobody cares, just do it.
Feel free to block any communities you please, I personally block them even if they're fine because they fill up local/all feeds with content I do not understand/care about
