Pretty much, haha. The amount of elitism among some Linux users is quite potent.
they take themselves very seriously

Ubuntu
Why tho?
Because it’s fine, and it’s one of the more “normal” options for first-timers.

Actually it's gnu/star trek
Everyone hates on gnuTrek

Just got Kubuntu set up, quite happy with it so far.
Kinda hit or miss on Star Trek. Lower Decks is just about the best show ever though.
(Mint is good, don't like Cinnamon all that much, and it's an Ubuntu derivative anyway, so figured Kubuntu would have KDE 'native')
(Tried Fedora, couldn't get codec/video stuff to work right)
(Steam is generally easier and more supported on Debian derivatives, at least for now)
i tried mint as my first ever linux, not counting whatever it was that i tried for like a minute in the late 90s, and it was fine, but i was looking for a gaming linux. manjaro worked ok for a while before i somehow borked it beyond recognition, and then i tried garuda which i was somehow laughably 50x worse with. now i'm on POP_OS! (eEeEwWw) which has a lot of things that suck, but has worked the best for me so far. i built a brand new pc specifically to ditch windows for linux

I oddly started watching star trek of because of all the fire memes on lemmy
How'd you like it?

one thing i've noticed since switching to linux, or before that to be honest, is that when someone says "which distro should i use" the universal reply is "any of them will work! just pick one!" but then when someone mentions which distro they're using, there's always 100% without fail someone who chimes in with "ewwwwww why?!?"
Unless it's Arch, then everyone seems to agree it is the best Linux.
At which I will point out it's the second linuxiest Linux. Real penguins use Gentoo

I mean, if you're not using LFS, are you really using linux at all?

I've just skipped around episodes in Next Generation, DS9 and Voyager but I love most of it.
Homefront and Paradise Lost might be some of the best television I've ever seen. The fact that those episodes came out before 9/11 might be the craziest piece of foreshadowing I've ever seen.
Little green men was my favorite though.

I used to love Star Trek until I hit that Tuvix episode. That triggered some things in my personal background. I tried to get over it but I can't.

Call me when I can play ALL the video games I want to play on Linux and I'll happily ditch windows.
Hard mode: you aren't allowed to mention Proton or tell me to abandon video games I like because "Well kernal anticheat is bad and was invented by satan" (it is, I know, I still want to play fortnite occasionally or whatever).

That's awesome! Lower decks and Strange New Worlds are going to be a treat for you, save them for later

wrote on last edited by [email protected]i've noticed that as well. arch users are to linux as gowron is to star trek memes. i haven't tried arch or gentoo--honestly i don't have the ambition i had when i was 12 trying to figure out how to run ultima 7 on my 386 "IBM compatible" CLI DOS machine

Maybe the lower decks parody will help? It might equally make it worse though, you might want to read or have someone else read a synopsis

That is awesome. Yoinked for my avatar!

I use Star Trek and watch Linux, but I am really missing the obligatory "There are dozens of us"-comment here. Well, now it is kind of here.

it's not "fine". i recommended a friend start with ubuntu because it's the easiest one and tte issues i have had to help with in the past year...
they switched to endeavourOS and i've heard no complaints since.

You just posted it to a server hosted on linux. You use Linux friend. One of us one of us gooble gobble one of us.
It's the year of the linux server.
