    Your distro is crap, mine is awesome.

    What distro do I use? I don't see how that's relevant. No, I don't need to know what you use either.

    Edit: we all secretly know that Hannah Montana Linux is the best.

    Me with my freshly built LFS which can do nothing except booting to bash:

    The highest os form. A bootloader for your shell

    Sounds ideal

    Some people, many people, they say, you know a lot of people say it, they say that your distro is shit. Now, what, and you know it's true because a lot of people, the best people, they say that you have many driver incompatibilities. I know everything about drivers and it's true that your drivers, you know, they are shit too. I used to know Linus Torvalds, I didn't care for him, but he always said to me "you know drolex, zurohki's drivers, they are not compatible at all". And that's the truth. And your kernel is outdated. Absolutely obsolete. I know it, you know it. Now my distro, everyone knows, everybody says all the time, my distro is the best distro. The best experts, and I know a lot because I am the expert on distros, well, they all say my distro is the best no money can buy. It's absolutely true! And it has everything for the best distro: terminal commanding, crontabber, vim thingy, you can go ls and have all the information on the files. And even the folders. It's terrific. That's what a good distro is all about and a lot of people say my distro has it all.

    Someone has to create the "stable genius Linux“

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    It is the OS for absolute winners, after all

    reject os and return to entering machine code by hand

    Pffft. We all know Red Star Linux is most glorious of free and open source software.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

    That Hannah Montana Linux is art.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

    AmogOS is also good. For the masochist Debian based distro users you can also consider suicide Linux. https://github.com/tiagoad/suicide-linux

    On your edit, that gives me horrible flashbacks to early 2k KDE. I'm ocularly offended.

    This made me laugh. It's funny cuz it's true. And one of those crayfish is a newbie.

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I like to think both the crayfish are newbies

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Possibly, but time and again I see toxic support areas where some noob gets a berating.

    [–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Where did you get this picture of me? Nobody was supposed to know that I'm a crustacean!

    Facebook scraped your private photos "by accident". Oops.

    Ubuntu LTS

    Is the best all around Linux OS today for most users.

    This thread is too positive. Thought I'd give you something to downvote. 🦞🫠

    Why? What you need that isn't in ubuntu repos?

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    It was a joke based on the fact that Canonical's snaps are sort of a kink for some people and when some people with kinks have sex, they want their partner to slap them, so they ask in a polite way while they refer to said partner as "daddy", so it was, more or less, a wordplay on how the words "snap" and "slap" sound similar...
    IDK, dude I don't even use Ubuntu, just try not to be the lobster in the picture ✌️

    I appreciate your sacrifice!

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

    I mean you're probably not wrong?

    I'll never be super interested in the LTS stuff. I love poking the "cutting" (but not bleeding) edge stuff. I don't mind reinstalling now and then if things go south in a big way

    I'm using Debian-testing by using Ubuntu LTS. 🥲

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    Debian-oldstable is the one for me. All y'all can go ahead and test things for me.

    I just wish people didn't spread so much missingormation in this community, in theory I would love to argue about things like Systemd, Flatpaks, Appimages, Gnome, KDE, Arch, Standalone WMs and so on but in practice it's just a bunch of dushbags trashing on things they obviously don't want to understand most of the time!

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

    yeah, and not even limited to just linux, I hate those kinds of people

    Newbies hating on Flatpak, Wayland, PipeWire, SystemD, and other new stuff that actually works unlike their predecessors because they were told by some racist boomer Linux YouTuber to hate those

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    What makes linux cool is that there are alternatives for literally anything. The fact that there is a constant debate going and people using all sorts of implementations just means that less of the system becomes a black box and more people are actually looking at and eventually working on the code. This keeps the system alive, and means it hasn't ended up with some rotten filesystem like NTFS or a shitty Registry configuration system like windows.

    The most popular distro on distrowatch is MX Linux which uses initV but has ability to run systemd services - but however, initV became 10x faster and more usable because of rewrites that were sparked by the systemd debate.

    This is literally pure nerd rage energy being turned into amazing code, and it's beautiful.
