You use Linux because of your superiority complex and need to be seen as cool.
I use Linux because I’m broke.
We are not the same.
I use Linux because I don’t trust windows, I don’t like the direction Microsoft is headed, and I’m bored.
We’re not the same either, but that’s ok. We can still all have each other’s backs.
Let’s not repeat the mistakes of (some!) old Unix-Heads and just welcome all newbies, please <3
I use linux because, in the 90s, Redhat shipped with a Star Trek game. We are not the same.
I think my mother played that star trek game on a time shared minicomputer.
I use Linux because of compiz fusion cube desktop. We are not the same.
We are not. When I want a cubic desktop environment I reach(ed) for BeOS.
and NeXT for the cubic computer itself
It did? Which one?
I’ve been trying to remember but it hasn’t come back to me. It was a 2D, top down, space battle game. Its possible it wasn’t named after Star Trek, but you pilot a grey ship with a saucer section and nacelles to fire torpedoes and phasers at green bird of prey looking ships so…
Xtrek would be what pops to kind for me, possibly?
I switched in the late 90s to attract women. I still think it’s going to work someday.
That’s not a bad strategy. Just gotta add some leftist politics to the mix.
Well, theres been a push to get more women into Tech so that works in your favour.
Your job is now to lure them away from the Microsoft bros
Any time now surely
“Come back to my house! There’s no windows! No wait- not like that- don’t go!”
I use Linux because it’s great and better than windows
I mean, can’t it be both?
Linux gotta mainstream wen?
Time to switch to bsdI’ve used FreeBSD for about a month in 2005, and still can’t stop talking about it.
Solaris tho
shutters
shudders
No shutters:
Least contrarian Linux user.
I only switched this week, and I kinda disagree with the meme.
It’s both.
I’m only dual booting because I’m a gamer and some games only run on Windows.
I use windows cause I play on vrchat a lot
While I did switch to Linux because Windows 3.11 (or more specifically MS Word) sucked, I never found the need to go back, even back then. So there’s that.
yay gatekeeping!
Yeah this post is pretty cringe lol
I use linux because I love penguins.
We’re not the same.
I use Linux cuz Linux looks cool
I use Linux cuz I was bored one summer
That’ll probably be me this summer once I organize and backup my files
I didn’t even backup. I just went for it
