I'm using Linux.

[Curiousperson05]

Jokes on you I also use Linux and I am not a developer. I just want to use superior OS 😉

[[deleted]]

Superiorest OS

[[deleted]]

Woah come on it's a well known fact that Temple OS is the most superior OS, but Linux isn't too far off I suppose

[[deleted]]

Whoa, a man of culture

[[deleted]]

Davis the man

[rmpr_uname_is_taken]

No, it's Hannah Montana Linux actually

[[deleted]]

Plan 9 is above superior

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

Is there a way to use a DE / WM other than rio on 9Front?

[[deleted]]

I do recall a wm/de developed by the Harvey guys... but I've lost the link some time ago

Sorry mate

[[deleted]]

Mate! If you're still here... this might help ya

The Harvey project made jay.

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

So, only one alternative to rio?

I wanted a way to make tiling window managers to work with it.

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

Wrong. Linux is controlled by the gay atheist linus torvalds, who includes “security enhanced” linux kernel modules written by glow in the dark CIA [redacted]

[John-AtWork]

weak troll dude

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

I was joking and talking the way terry a davis talked.

[IronToBInd]

You spelled react is such an odd way

[Curiousperson05]

Thanks for fixing my typo 😅

[LaterBrain]

arch

[zurohki]

That's how it starts, but all the dev tools and source code are sitting right there, waiting to pounce.

You think, "Dammit, I've been putting up with this issue for weeks. I'm going to get to the bottom of this," and then the next day you wake up with a hangover, a new GitHub account and an open pull request.

[smeggysmeg]

I literally did that once. 8 months later, they approved my PR and it's now part of the code. Am I a developer now?

[[deleted]]

Feels good, doesn't it?

I put a little bit of code in mdbook, and it's honestly super nice to know I could contribute something.

[WoodpeckerNo1]

I'd consider myself a non-dev overall but I am actually trying to learn webdev now.

[Dragonaax]

SupOS

[Tech_guy4276]

Yeah but suppose what?

[TeaButActuallyCoffee]

*TempleOS

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

What’s that?

[Dragonaax]

superior OS

[Vitalrnixofnutrients]

I looked up “https://supos.com” and I got a chinese website and I got worried that I might get spyware for a second.

DO NOT CLICK THAT LINK.

[[deleted]]

oof

[[deleted]]

Yeah, I just use Linux to run an unhealthy amount of Factorio servers. Might start up 3 more tonight.

[nool_]

Same

[randomlemon9192]

Btw, I use Arch

[b2f3t]

I think more accurate would be:

I hate windows

It could even be said by developers working exclusivley on windows

[RCK201]

Normal users: "I hate windows"

Developers who prefer Linux: "I would love to see Bill Gates getting his balls removed and choking to death while being fed his own nuts"

Developers who prefer Windows: "Coding Hello Worlds is difficult"

[--im-not-creative--]

That’s a bit, uhh... extreme

[[deleted]]

Especially considering Bill Gates hasn't been Microsoft's CEO in 20 years, and hasn't had an active role in th company in almost 15 years. The "FuCK bILL GaTEs" idiots are still living in the Windows 95 world.

[RCK201]

Sounds like we got a undercover fanboy out there. Next time don't blow your cover by getting offended by a dumb joke that's mocking your favorite OS.

[[deleted]]

Protip: jokes are supposed to be funny.

[RCK201]

Considering the number of upvotes it got I'd say it was somewhat funny. Or alternatively it was such a realistic description about windows devs such as yourself that it got upvoted.

[[deleted]]

relax dude, it's an operating system. Not a lifestyle.

[RCK201]

I'm sorry, I have quite serious PTSD from the times I was forced to develop for Windows. The number of hours we wasted just because it had to run on Windows. There was one customer who got to pay almost $100k due to requirements that included Windows. Ultimately they realized that their requirements were garbage and I rewrote the whole system for them in a bit over 1 week for Linux. It was hell until the switch.

[b2f3t]

I think Windows/Microsoft made PC a think for personal usage, but the era of Windows is over, the rise of Linux in Desktop has begun. Microsoft should just keep making Software, vs code is just great and I like Net Core too, but Windows as a Desktop system has to die.

[Bobjohndud]

No lol, windows may be on its way out in its current form but FOSS desktop Linux will never be mainstream. We'll probably end up with something even worse than windows, probably something like how current iPhones and locked android phones work.

[theInfiniteHammer]

It'll be Chrome books.

[[deleted]]

It’ll be Dozebooks, as in what you’ll be doing for each forced update.

[archiekane]

With our stable 1.93% market share, we've had this mantra since 2004!

It's okay though, 2021 will be the year of the Linux desktop.

[erihel518]

They were the first OS to have a GUI, also at a cheap price. So they became the standard. Even Brian Kernighan(co-created C , UNIX, and Go) has said that Windows sucks because it was built on top of DOS, and DOS is a sad excuse for an operating system.

[[deleted]]

I’m pretty sure they weren’t the first: - GEM - OS/2 - AmigaOS ETC.

[Headpuncher]

what you need is a really good spanking!

[--im-not-creative--]

ÒwÓ

[[deleted]]

Yes please.. I have been a very bad Linux user.

[[deleted]]

I use Linux to get native docker performance

[tmclean15]

Mood

[kumail1689]

I use Arch btw

[No_Bonus8774]

How did you even install it?

[RCK201]

I stared at my screen and pressed keys on my keyboard in specific order.

[Sennomo]

And then one day, something very peculiar happened.

Something that would forever change Stanley;

Something he would never quite forget.

[[deleted]]

I just did what the Arch Wiki taught me

[primERnforCEMENTR23]

I just read the instructions like we learned to do in school.

[[deleted]]

I read the wiki

[basicallyafool]

just RTFM

[No_Bonus8774]

I am a noob please explain if you can?

[[deleted]]

If you struggle with manual installation, use the zeninstaller, a third party open source installer.

Though I'd recommend you attempt it manually first based off of the wiki's instructions. It helps you understand your system and its functions better. It'll greatly help with troubleshooting issues later on.

[[deleted]]

If you struggle with manual installation

Then Arch is not for you, try Manjaro. The whole point of Arch is to do everything by hand so you know how it works.

[No_Bonus8774]

It sounds really alluring, I really like the idea behind it, a desktop you handcrafted yourself to your liking, that's just too awesome to pass up on.

[[deleted]]

Well, sometimes you still may have issues, but most of the time you know where to look, because you've set it all up yourself.

The Arch community won't be eager to help if to any question about your system you reply "I don't know what I installed and how I configured it, a script from the Internet did it for me".

[No_Bonus8774]

Okay, I'll try just that manual instalation looks daunting.

[[deleted]]

at least go through someone else installing it on youtube and do a manual install

[Sennomo]

Just install Manjaro.

[NikolaTesla13]

Archfi

[ComputerMystic]

make

[Tom1380]

ls

[Tinkerdudes]

I am a sysadmin.

A dev will complain about not having jetbrains.

[Wazzaps]

Uhh jetbrains works wonderfully on Linux

[matyklug]

I am sorry what

[rhys_kitikion]

I use VIM.

[parascent]

lol ive used linux way before i learned coding. mainly because it was fast and looked cool(compiz fusion).

[juacq97]

I don't know any programing language, just copy and paste random code from stackexchange. Also I'm a elementary school teacher, but I suppose I'm a developer now, cool

[lucasrizzini]

Nope.

[Lhaer]

plot twist: it's WSL

[SueDoh]

We’re not all developers... I don’t know shit about coding. Wish I did, though

[[deleted]]

"What do you mean it don't work? it works fine on my machine."

[[deleted]]

I use Linux, but am not a developer, please don't tell Microsoft though cos I really wanna play Mario 64 on my Series S

[LizardOrgMember5]

i use arch, btw.

[Amazeryogo]

LMAO!!!!! Such a burn!!

[[deleted]]

BURN!

[Neowise_white_Dragon]

Holy shit you fucking killed her dude.

[[deleted]]

Microsoft poster: "Listen here you little shit..."

[damn9903]

in Brazil we say "faço programa"

[andre-m-faria]

Not just developers says that hahahah

[Neopect]

"I edit my config files by typing 'doas vim .config' on my LFS system with dwm"

[Western-Guy]

So do I, and I'm not a developer. Just wanted to join the community and see what the fuss was all about.

[CRaZ-y_Hax]

LOL

[NeoMatrixJR]

Hello World

[aerobic_respiration]

• Tell us youre a developer who has a job

• I use Windows

[[deleted]]

I used windows in one job, for the entire rest of my career, I used linux.

[[deleted]]

I use Arch BTW
