Isn’t the point of this meme for the low IQ and high IQ people to have the same preference? Any way, I’m on Linux Mint usually -_-
Well, ubuntu is based on debian, so it is the same preference.
quickly escapes the comment section
Can confirm. I’m using Kubuntu because the Debian installer didn’t detect my hardware correctly and I couldn’t be bothered to figure out why. Aside from snaps, I don’t care.
I think by default the debain installer doesn’t have any proprietary code.
From freedom, came elegance
Well I can tell you why Linux does not have a higher adoption rate: toxic shit like this.
Na the biggest and main reason why Linux doesn’t have a higher adoption rate (on desktop) is that it’s not preinstalled on the devices you buy.
There are obviously other factors but they are miniscule in comparison
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux.
Oh no, I can no longer tell if you are serious or making fun of the people who are serious.
The best know how to tread the line perfectly. Some say that even they don’t know if they’re serious.
How is Gentoo keeping it simple?
Simple is unfortunately the negation for complicated and complex, which are slightly different things. Ubuntu is not complicated, but complex. Gentoo is complicated, but not as complex (at least it can be).
lol aren’t complicated and complex synonyms (as adjective)?
No, there’s a pretty important difference.
As an Ubuntu weanie why should I swap?
This was me, except I went straight from Ubuntu to Debian. At some point I wondered why I was doing all this manual maintenance. I realized that Ubuntu relies on Debian and so I switched. Haven’t looked back.
I find gentoo to give a very debian like experience in alot of ways, although I suppose it does use a lot of time which is what this is on about.
I only use gentoo on my laptop (where I never leave the tty) so it’s not as big a deal, with the largest package being gcc.
Overall based meme.
I still love Debian to bits and pieces but I can’t convince me to use it as a daily driver again. And I used it as such for nearly a decade.
My main issue is the software being dated. Yes, there are backports, and with flatpak support we can circumvent that even better but… no.
no time for distro wars if you’re too busy hunting down drivers and unbreaking everything :]
(debian still best distro tho)
I use Linux Mint because I like Mint Ice Cream
I use Parrot in honour of my parrot Loba
I use Ubuntu Mate because I’ve always wanted one
I use Peppermint because it’s my favourite flavor of gum
I use Rocky Linux because he’s my favourite American Hero
I use fedora because I know it will come back in style
I use debian based distro. Level of over 9000
Debian is for people who have shit to get done and don’t care about a neon colored wallpaper, mostly don’t have a wallpaper at all.
It’s a lot harder to get Nvidia drivers working on Debian than any other distro I’ve tried including Arch. Every issue besides that one I’ve ever had in Debian, I was able to fix.
How so? If you have non-free enabled, shouldn’t
apt install nvidia-driver
work?I’m about to get a chance to try it on a different pc (M5A am3 with a Titan X), but on a x79 motherboard and a 1080ti, that doesn’t work. After installing that, I do get the Nvidia x server but when I open the program, it’s an empty window and something is obviously broken. I installed Arch on the same pc and it was even easier to get Nvidia drivers working than on Ubuntu.
Quick attack users of the most popular distro before normal people start using Linux! We can’t allow a good, stable and perfectly usable distro to get popular, we need to bully everyone back to windows or terrible things might happen like the year of they Linux desktop!!
Quick Attack? Like the pokeymun move?
