I think you might just be missing some of the content. I think from the commoners here others have noticed this trend as well. I couldn’t care less just just saying I only see it here. Though I do spend less time on Reddit these days.

I think it’s a lemmy thing. The folks here are typically the folks in smaller more progressive communities. You dont even see it THAT much on Reddit.

I’ve worked with 1 known ftm and didn’t know until 4 years in. I work in a 250 person org which is fairly progressive. I wonder if it’s that easy at a lot of bigger and vc tech.

I have worked with plenty of neck beard types, as well as more average folks. So this meme doesn’t match my experience at all.

Beef? I called out the dumb memes around Linus because he represents a normal user. You all then scream that normal users should be more educated and care about hardware, why Nvidia sucks, etc; which is a pipe dream and never EVER going to happen.

I have no beef. This is reality.

And yet most people choose Windows.

You guys will never ever understand and you’ll be on your death bed screaming Linux DE is just fine and totally just as easy to use.

Oh good, round 3. I really can’t wait to have 10 posts each time Google updates its ad blocking code.

Do whatever the fuck you want. If you want to skip those games go the fuck ahead.

That’s not what they are asking though. Try to keep up and read the question.

They are looking for technology wiork arounds. Which, gasp* shockingly will get you banned.

You are just eventually going to get caught and potentially lose your library. Just Olay them normal imo.

👌👍🤣

Doesn’t matter in the least bit when talking about the viability.

I stopped at line 1. Yes. You finally get it. It’s an appliance. It is too much to ask me to dick around being responsible for my os. I’m glad we’re making progress.

Nah. I’ve never had to spend hours dicking around fixing Wayland. That’s worth its weight in gold.

Imagine insulting someone who said “this sucks for normal user” with get gud 🤣

Absolutely fantastic. We’ve really gone full circle.

Again with the condescension. Assuming your values have anything to do with my technical skill.

🙄 oh God here we go with not understanding tech.

You can understand technology and dislike Linux DE. It’s so condescending.

👌👍

There is always butthurt about him. He’s a normal user and folks can’t cope that Linux desktop is a mess for the average user.

XXXX year of the Linux desktop.

Linux is fantastic for running shit. It’s pretty terrible for most normal users to use.

You are off your rocker if you think most saas products can be replaced by docker 🤣

There is a big gap between you running jellyfin in your basement and securely and reliably maintaining services.

Your Fedora must be huge!

It’s amazing to me in 2024 we still have fanboys saying this shit ad nauseum since 1995.

Linux is a shitty desktop environment unless you like to tinker. Apple and Windows provide a far better experience to those who want shit to just work and be compatible.

I’m going to just advise you to consider the nature here and if you really want to self host. Unless you really think you’ve put enough effort in to make sure your running HA and are prepared to support.

Consider when you may need this most, in an emergency where you ain’t going to be troubleshooting with a family members health on the line.

IMO, I have zero interest in that level of responsibility.
