ZorinOS: Always wears fancy fashion, completely forgets to do any homework though.

Kali Linux: Always got a copy of all the answers. Nobody knows how. Somewhat creepy.

ElementaryOS: Thinks of themself as special. Always has to do things slightly different than others.

Depending on your profession a small team just proved that you can even fly as high as it gonna gets.

More often than not the main problem is how our education system is set up, teaching certain topics like CAD or image manipulation with specific software from companies which “invest in education” (i.e. pay Universities and educators to create future customers for them). Adobe and Autodesk are the biggest dicks in this regard, but also Apple.

Back to games, the general rule by now is “if it is on Steam and doesn’t have the worst anti-cheat, it usually works”. Outside of Steam you may have to tinker a little bit, but Heroic and Lutris make this easier by the week. The biggest problems more often than not are the god damn third-party launchers.

Best game of all time in my books, and with its success they were even able to give Replicant the glow-up it truly deserves (and fully finish it including Ending E).

CEO endorsing Trump regime.

They are very good reasons to criticize Mozilla and Proton. Just not these.

Without distros there would be no Linux desktop ecosystem to begin with. Also who’s to say what true value is?

Every distro comes with people who don’t just maintain their own stuff, but contribute to the whole ecosystem. It doesn’t need to be a Debian or Arch to be worth something.

So again, please don’t start bickering about what’s most important. It all got its place, and someone calling for donations for good thing A does not undermine good thing B. All good things need attention.

Both deserve our attention and donations, please don’t try to divert people from one important FOSS project to another.

Realistic proposal in Finland I’d assume. As a nation they must be quite proud of Torvalds, enough to celebrate his contribution to modern technology and Linux in general.

Already reported with a patch incoming.

Broken driver. It now seemingly attempts to read the current battery status, and while doing so literally locks up (not sure what “locking” means in context of a Kernel, but it’s somehow involved).

Yes.

This. It’s a good distro to base something else on (like SteamOS), and therefore good to learn how distros work without the need to even now how software as a whole works (that would be Gentoo).

It’s however horribly unstable, finicky and time-consuming as a daily driver as all the tiny adjustments and pre-configuration other distros make are missing by design.

It’s good if you want to become the soldier.

“Kernel regressions” was a little bit too generalizing in this meme. Technically drivers that became part of the kernel can also regress, as recently seen by users of Corsair Void wireless headsets (an unpatched 6.13 kernel is panicing once the headset adapter is plugged in).

Well yes, although with Arch Linux it’s a necessity. Most distros using apt do come with graphical software centers as well. Unfortunately many people in the community indeed do ignore those tools instead of pointing to them. Hell, some even still recommend editing the god damn fstab file despite it being perfectly manageable with both Gnome and KDE tools, which are present in most popular distros and way safer unless you really know what you’re doing. To have those on Arch you’re forced to use CLI tools first.

It was more of a rant about the community than an argument against Arch.

Seeing my meme being reposted after just 5 days feels rather affirming. Nvidia drivers really suck. 😁

It’s a general problem with the community in my experience. People keep saying it’s “simple”, then whip 3 terminal commands out of their pocket nobody without extensive knowledge would understand (or be able to tell if they do something wrong). They just don’t realize how much knowledge they possess in comparison, and/or how little others are interested in gaining said knowledge (not because they’re ignorant, but simply because they got other priorities in life).

The community really needs an “injection of normies” for some people to wake up from their elitism trip.

No one said everyone who wants to switch is unfriendly. I do concur that a lot of people in the Linux community act like dicks though.

Used Arch for a few years as well. Recommending it to newcomers who do not specifically ask for a learning experience is just vile.

Specifying intent in the meme would’ve been too much text in my opinion though. In general I think unless specified one shouldn’t expect newcomers to be into learning tech, but into ease of use.

Language is beautiful.
