Recently I joked to less techy friends that in the patch of the internet I most often lurk, there are two “genders”: anarchist, trans, cat girls, and libertarian techbros. This seems similar to the joke that was made about Arch.
I run arch btw. I am neither trans, nor a catgirl, but there is no question about where I belong — I have the programming socks, after all. Besides, anarchist trans catgirls throw the best parties
Where do seasoned, leftist, graybeards/hairs fit into this gender binary?
I fucking hate how accurate that is, I am anarchist (adjacent), a transgirl, and I do say nya a lot. I use Fedora tho.

Everyone else: Weird fun quirky fun
Deb and Mint: You boring AF. You want the thing to work? Ugh, just leave.
Wrong. I respect Debian and mint users. I respect them for the same reason I use fedora.
I’m on CachyOS. What does that say about me?
You like to play video games and you don’t like being a fedora sheep.
That and your the gamer in your group that sets up the servers and manages the mod packs while the rest of your group is on bazzite.
I feel seen. Descriptions were apt.
One category missed though, is oldsters like me who started on slack or yggdrassyl, lived on Debian for a decade, and moved to Mint because, eh, feck it, I don’t want to think about configs anymore.
That said, I use mint for my daily, and Debian for anything that does headless work.
What does Mint bring that makes you choose it over Debian on the desktop?
I dunno… It’s wearing a little more makeup I suppose. It has more dumb user things working out of the box, last I checked. Differentiating them has worked well enough for me that I haven’t done a deep comparison in many years.
I use Arch Linux (BTW), and it was very accurate. Dont ask me for help. Just RTFM!!

I’m unpretentious and unwilling to change for changes sake.
Debian? :p
First of all:
Whoa, I always think these are stupid & random, but this is the first one I actually don’t have notes for.
Brava.Second of all:
Is that Sexual Lobster in the thumbnail??
Never seen that reference in the wild.
(Huh, prob just that Sexual Lobster/Greasy Moose (Chris Voigt) & Weebl (Jonti Picking) worked together at Albino Blacksheep)Third of all:
Where are all the Hannah Montana Linux users?Using NixOS at home and I swear I’m not a furry! At work, I use CachyOS (Arch). My wife is sad that there was no mention of Solus…
Nixos! There are dozens of us.
DevOps/SRE crowd love reproducibility.
Currently doing embedded and I wish Yocto would be based on Nix and not its own language. But I’m starting to get used to it
The bazzite call out made me so happy :')
I’ve used a few of them, but there are also some missing that I used for quite some time.
Debian on the proper PC.
Bazzite on the Deck.
… of course with a Debian environment set up in DistroShelf for when I am spurred to futz with dev work on the Deck.
… I am an apocalypse oriented gamer / dev who hates Windows, by this video.
Uh… yep, yep, no notes really.
Is there no sound on purpose ?
Sound works fine for me
Ok then it’s a newpipe bug
Inaccurate garbage.
I use Arch because I’m old and set it up just the way I want it years ago and never have to change or reinstall. How dare you accuse me of, what was it, being a cranky asshole?! Wait.
/s
It’s cute. Thanks for posting.
I’m on Slackware because what I’ve used since 2002.
And still haven’t updated*
Yeah, I guess Slackware 15.0 came out in 2002. So did 11.2.0, apparently. And whatever KDE it has (I use Sawfish on it so I have no idea, heh).
I’ve tried a ton of distros but nothing has beat the stability of Slackware. Also been using it since around the same time
Not even the man RMS himself uses GNU/Hurd or Guix, which is hilarious.
I knew RMS is supposed to refer to Richard Stallman and while reading my head filled it in as “Richard Maria Stallman”
