“As a Linux user…”

Yeah yeah, you’re right. But can you maybe shut up about it for just a minute?

USE LINUX

LINUX IS BETTER IN EVERY WAY

MICROSOFT SUCKS APPLE SUCKS GOOGLE SUCKS

THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP

    Windows user: I use Windows! It’s the best!

    Apple user: I use OS X! It’s the best!

    Windows and Apple users: Which do you use?

    Linux user: Linux.

    Windows and Apple users: OMG shut up, nobody asked!

      As a Linux user (who uses Arch btw), most Linux users at least care about what OS they use. To everyone else, they just wanna get work done and aren’t just having conversations about what they’re running. It’s a computer, not their personality.

        You’d see that a lot on Reddit, on subs like r/pcmr or r/gaming. But not much of that here, presumably because Lemmy has a higher ratio of FOSS-friendly folks.

      No not really no. This doesn’t happen. Not even remotely close to as often as Linux users say Linux

      I’m not even saying Linux users should say it less, I’m fine with whatever, it’s just that this isn’t true at all

        This happened with XP, 7, and 8.1. 10 wasn’t bad either at first, but they’ve gradually enshitified it. 10 now and 11 are spyware masquerading as an OS.

      As a Windows user, just keep your Apple away from me. I can’t do shit with it. My wife stepped away while we were zooming with someone the other day, and the Mac got pulled to another desktop (or something). I had no clue what to do. Apparently, it’s a three-finger swipe on the trackpad, because of course it’s a three-finger swipe.
