Liking an OS isn’t a personality trait, but evangelizing for Free and Open Source Software which generally has no budget for advertising is a noble cause.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.

I wish people were as into FOSS as they are AI. I fucking hate LLMs.

Did you know you could've made this meme on the FREE, OPEN-SOURCE image editor GIMP? Available now on Linux!

Sorry non sorry for trying to advertice ways to avoid ending up in a digital dystopia.

Just admit that you are paid by Big Open Source and move on to your next sponsor Air Up

I will have you know my entire online persona on Lemmy is basically a 24/7 "Barbie" movie advertisement, thank you very much.

I use Arch BTW.

Hey the Linux community is active so they show up on All. Same thing with video game communities, it's a reflection of the interests of those who populate Lemmy. I don't care for either but we gotta start someplace. IMO it's largely due to the concept of the fediverse and instances and not simply an app you sign up to. FWIW, I barely get it. Folks here seem to be a tech savvy bunch

Disliking Linux memes is not a personality trait, OP!!!

So anyways, I run Arch on my main gaming computer, and Debian on my servers and laptops.

I use Arch btw

Hey! Have you heard of this OS called Linux? It's like windows apart from that it's nothing like windows, it's free and never ever hard to use at all!

Pretty much why I blocked c/technology from my feed. They could turn a post about a scientist studying crab migration into a debate about why the crabs aren't running fuckin Linux. Not everything has to be about an OS, you lot. They're basically Computer Mormons.

not knowing how to read a manual isn't a personality trait either linux haters

Okay that is not going to stop me lol. 🤣

Yes. And then, when you ask them 1 simple question they’re like "READ THE WIKI"

Dude/tte I don’t know anything about Linux. I’ve used the command line on my Mac 8~9 times and sometimes on windows and that’s it.

I really want to install Asahi (Arch) on my Mac as a VM before dual-booting but I’m failing for a week now and money‘s too tight atm to get even a cheap $50 laptop for testing.

They're the vegans of the tech world.

This place in a nutshell 😄

Hey...I also advocate for more solidarity within communities, growing your own food, using less plastic & cars, and Star Trek...Linux is just like 30% what I talk about.

I’m in this and I don’t like it. Reported.

I think they’re fun

Have you seen the programmer socks?

What operating system defines you as a person?

Can you really advertise something that's free?

I think the right word is proselytize

Jokes on you I spend my time hating on windows specifically

If people got it they wouldn't be running Windows. The brow-beatings will continue.

We are the Linux desktop advertising budget

This is such an emacs take

You go to the circus and get mad when you see clowns.
