I heard rumours that there was a giant animal involved in the making of Linus Torvalds. So please refer to him as GNU/Linus, or GNU+Linus.
xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
We need Linus to fly to Africa and ride on a wildebeast. There’s just no other way to achieve world peace.

Totally understandable. Haven’t used windows at all, home or work, in at least a decade. However, I went through my insufferable Linux zealot phase about 15 years ago.
I was an annoying judgemental ass, but I got better.
spujb@lemmy.cafe 8 months ago
proud of you for your growth, and more than that, your willingness to admit so aloud 🙇♀️ 👑
Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
That’s not to say that I still don’t honestly consider Linux a better option in most use cases. I just don’t generally wade in past the most simple explanations of stuff.
If people want to switch, they will. I’ve realized I’m not doing anyone any favours by being pushy.

Me at 16, shitting on people who use OSX (iOS wasn’t a thing then)
Now me: oodles of Windows machines, three Linux machines, a Mac laptop, and an iPhone because fuck dealing with custom ROMs

spujb@lemmy.cafe 8 months ago
i get being passionate but when its every. single. comment. it gets exhausting.
it’s like if i went and commented “BE A VEGAN” under every picture of a burger on c/foodporn. like live your truth!!, but be decent about it for goodness sake.
li10@feddit.uk 8 months ago
I get it.
Im literally a Linux support guy for a living and even I think people can be obnoxious recommending Linux.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ll shit on Windows when I get the chance, but I get why people either have to use it or just don’t want the hassle of Linux.
Fish@midwest.social 8 months ago
IMO it’s Redditor behavior. I hate Microsoft and Windows but there are some really annoying, overbearing Linux know-it-alls on Lemmy. It’s possible to inform people of Linux without being an annoying asshole
Stamets@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Preach.
CTDummy@lemm.ee 8 months ago
Love Linux, definitely foresee myself having it as a daily driver in the not too distant future. That out of the way, I initially thought “is this even a shitpost” lmao

They can bother you if you block them.
For example I just blocked the entire Linux lemmy.ml community 1 minute ago.

Linux made my computing fun and free again. It’s not for everyone but it did spark my interest and finally settled to be happy with the change.
Ymmv, though don’t rule it out how anything could impact you personally. Playing the hard to try way might poison any cool potential personal discoveries on your own.
humbletightband@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
I was lucky to be in a few companies that enforce win, Linux and Mac laptops.
In the win company (a pretty big one, everyone has heard of it), they’ve given me Think pad T14 that had an i3 proc that was falling behind 3 generations.
In the Linux company they’ve supplied me with a disgusting chromebook, “because everything in the cloud now”. Discussed ByOD, worked from my own one.
In the most recent company - the smallest one I’ve been working in, they’ve given me a decent M1 Pro with 16 Gb.
So at least, companies that enforce Mac will give you a decent machine to work on.
GBU_28@lemm.ee 8 months ago
This is why a prefer Mac shops. It’s kinda hard to buy a current Mac and have the stats be actual dogshit.
I swear most windows shop try to find the shittiest machine that even qualifies as a laptop then load it with so much corpo wear that even Outlook sends the machine into thermal limiting

Ziglin@lemmy.world 8 months ago
When has anyone ever recommended windows/macos over Linux for compatibility?
spujb@lemmy.cafe 8 months ago
daily, perhaps. hourly, even.
Ziglin@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Why though? I’ve failed to run windows 10 on an old laptop and windows 11 won’t even officially support something without TPM 2 and just seems to want to commit suicide on my machine (and take any other bootloader to the grave with it). Macos gets updates for a few years until it doesn’t and then software won’t run on the older/newer versions. I personally don’t know of any software that wouldn’t run when I updated to Linux kernel version 6 (likely some drivers that aren’t maintained though) and I’m also running Linux on my old Pentium 4 with no problems except overheating in summer which is probably because it needs to be cleaned.

Can you share examples of this happening?
(I mean, obviously this thread has lots of “you should use Linux”'s in it, but those are clearly satirical.)
