Yeah, it's Windows users going out and proudly exclaiming their love. Definitely never heard a Linux user bitch about another OS.๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘

This has to be intentionally dense shit to trigger ACHKTUALLY type engagement right?

[โ€“] lemongarlic@lemmy.world 4 points 10 minutes ago

Windows users don't think about or even realize that other operating systems exist

[โ€“] angstylittlecatboy@reddthat.com 1 points 28 minutes ago (3 children)

What the fuck does the threadiverse even want for itself? Do you see yourself as an enshittification-resistant replacement for Reddit, or a communist Linux forum? This comic only makes sense if it's the latter.

[โ€“] CallMeAl@piefed.world 6 points 23 minutes ago

Could that be a bit of a hasty reduction to make based on one post in a shitpost comm?

[โ€“] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 minutes ago

Sir, this is a shitpost community.

[โ€“] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 minutes ago

You do realize you can just walk to another stall, right?

[โ€“] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 22 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

This comic is about LGBTQI+

C'mon, us linux users do the inverse all the time...

[โ€“] bigbangdangler@reddthat.com 1 points 5 minutes ago

How dare you come at me with self awareness!!

[โ€“] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 12 points 2 hours ago

That's okay because unlike Windows, Linux isn't guilty of market capture, adware, spyware, bloat, and any number of other things that are wrong with windows.

[โ€“] imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 hours ago

It happens when MS does something that annoys their userbase. Then Linux nerds jump in and tell how much Linux is better.

[โ€“] village604@adultswim.fan 81 points 5 hours ago (8 children)

Literally any time Windows is mentioned

[โ€“] CheesyFox@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 57 minutes ago

windows ๐Ÿคฎ

[โ€“] Phantaloons@piefed.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

You see shit, you clean it up, plain-as.

[โ€“] boboliosisjones@feddit.nu 60 points 5 hours ago

no we don't also windows is stupid you should install gentoo

[โ€“] marcos@lemmy.world 27 points 5 hours ago

Every time Windows is mentioned it's somebody complaining about some hostile thing that Linux doesn't do...

So yeah.

[โ€“] djdarren@piefed.social 5 points 3 hours ago

I was bitching about a shitty Windows thing to a happy Windows user just this afternoon.

Windows?? You just need to bring up Gnome

That's not true. Linux users do this waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Microslop users. Microslop has billions of users, but fewer than 20 fanboys, worldwide.

[โ€“] ekky@sopuli.xyz 30 points 5 hours ago

Fewer than 19*

I've converted to Linux since.

[โ€“] TheDuke@europe.pub 8 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The thing is - most windows user don't even know Linux exists...

[โ€“] bstix@feddit.dk 5 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Most Windows users don't know Windows exist.

[โ€“] adarza@piefed.ca 1 points 27 minutes ago

i've run across some people around here who i would never have guessed knew about linux.. and not only did they know--they ran it. and yea, more than one was 'i use arch btw'.

Used and supported Windows for over 30 years at this point. I've NEVER been a fan, and started looking into Linux back in '99. It wasn't ready back then, but two decades later and it seems like Linux does everything except anti-cheat, which I have no use for, better than Windows ever did.

If I didn't have to use windows for work...

At this point, itโ€™s just insecurity about stuff not working right on Windows now.


To that point:

At the moment, on my dual boot desktop, hardware acceleration and video playback are busted in Chromium browsers on Windows. But it works perfectly fine in Wayland linux. And I donโ€™t really know why.

This is fascinating to me, as the situation was reversed about a year ago.

And if I were Windows only, without years of experience under the belt to make Linux seem less daunting, Iโ€™d be feeling anxious about that.

Not that Iโ€™m a Linux fanboy: Windows is just better for some specific things. But still, Iโ€™m not going to either OS booth to complain.

[โ€“] tomi000@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago

Quite literally the opposite of reality. Good shitpost.

[โ€“] FishFace@piefed.social 10 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

The threadiverse is not a Linux stall.

[โ€“] nyctre@piefed.social 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Fastest save of my life. Applies to so many things too. I never understood the appeal of showing up just to say negative things. I'm guessing it's some need to drag people down to your sad level or something but it's not something I can understand.

[โ€“] sundray@lemmus.org 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

You ever see one of those videos of a guy sitting alone in his truck, filming himself talking about something that's bothering him even though nobody asked (or cares)? Same thing. They feel like nobody is listening to them and it just burns them up inside, and it fuels their bottomless sense of resentment.

[โ€“] nyctre@piefed.social 1 points 19 minutes ago

Huh.. I never thought of it that way. And I can see how they're similar but I feel they're different still mostly because these are usually trolls or just idiots that come to complain, whereas those people usually post on fb/utube/etc. where they're easier to ignore. Feels less targeted.

[โ€“] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Linux is pretty nice.

I have my issues with it, but theyโ€™re more on the UI side of things.

I love nixos, I really like Fedora silver blue, and Iโ€™m a huge fan of podman โ€” it feels like all the right compromises.

[โ€“] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 23 points 5 hours ago

My favorite thing is going onto the community for a game that explicitly supports linux with a problem just to have a bunch of replies to install windows from random chuds.

Survivorship bias, those that move along donโ€™t really get remembered
