Reject modern Linux, return to tradition

looks comfy.
howto?

>>105619482
X11 and FVWM for example.
But this is just a thread by some underage /g/entoo-child with no real function.

It's all you need

> vi & emacs
why would you have both one your machine? it is one or the other: vi chad or feeble emacs

>>105620358
False dichotomy

Literally all of these fags who rice out their Linux like this do this to show off their esoteric user interface mods online. After posting they swiftly reboot into their Windows to continue gaymen.

None of these fags do actual work with their machines in that state.

>He thinks he can do backwards compatibility on Linux
Find an old distro and sit on it without installing new dependencies. The only way to do anything on Linux. Shit OS.

>>105620641
This. I only use linux, debian, for both work and gaming. I once posted by xfce4 desktop in one of those threads only to receive a shit-ton of replies saying I'm not allowed to post because my setup is too boring/standard.

>>105620641
this but the biggest jokes are those who even forget to hide clues of a virtual machine in their screenshots. I've seen that also a couple times and it made me laugh.

all i really need is a browser slsk and torrent and better audio output which linux xfce mint gives over W

Go back to plebbit or to your d-cord server, underage retards.

>>105621243
Not this.

>>105621243
thisn't

>>105621243
Ricerfag is getting peeved about facts.

>>105620641
Larping is a normal thing around here newfriend.
But I agree this is stupid, they should just say it openly because it doesn't take anything away from a kino result.
Fashion of function.

>>105621243
This is it.

I still use FVWM. It's great.

Fuck, no. Fuck Xorg and fuck UNIX. Xorg should not exists, X11 and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

>>105626121
what's wrong with Xorg/X11/Xserver? genuinely asking

>>105626130
It's insecure by design and it's designed for terminals (client-server).

>>105626148

Nothing has ever happened in decades of using it, it's a non-issue for regular users.

>>105619367 (OP)
I prefer Fvwm2 but Fvwm definitely has je ne sais quoi

>>105626148
That's why Xenocara exists

>>105626148
one of my machines ar work runs on debian (very old) with x. i would love to know how to break out of the sandbox it has.

>>105619367 (OP)
You think I ever left?

>>105620663
Skill issue

>>105626130
Nothing at all.

>>105619367 (OP)
You can still use mwm?

>>105620641
why is that bad?

>>105619367 (OP)
all unixes and unix-likes are cancer

>>105620358
There's a 0% chance you're using vi on a regular basis. I use vim for quick one-off config work when I am already in the terminal, and emacs for longer running stuff.

>>105630681
This fa/g/got windows.

>>105630707
Windows gets some points for surviving so long in a world dominated by cancer, but it's going to die before 2050. Since microsoft don't care about having a monopoly anymore and devs prefer unixslop, WSL will metastasize and take over its host and Windows will wind up like a zombie ant, suffering a fate worse than death.

>>105619367 (OP)
That looks like shit.
I'd rather go back to Windows 95's UI, that with a modern app launcher would be perfection.

>>105626148
the entire internet is insecure by design and is designed for terminals (client-server)

>>105620663
every single distro has fvwm in it's repository

>>105619482
>howto
Looks like twm, possibly tvtwm. CDE and Motif was also super comfy.

>>105623313
Same here, it's my favorite.

>>105631119
Yeah, but image if webpage tab can have access to other webpages tabs and log your keystrokes.

>>105632639
so long as you're running on a processor with branch prediction and speculative execution, it can.
spectre isn't a single bug, it's a class of exploit and it's inherent to how we design CPUs these days.

>>105619482
XBiff doesn't work with maildirs and mbox is ass. Also most people really want something like plan9's faces. 90% of your mail comes from mailing lists that you want to ignore. I have a custom program that does all this but it's not great and it's VTE only, not X.
>>105619367 (OP)
What file manager is that?
>>105631349
It's truly the best DE. I had it on my first laptop back in 2005 when I was 12. I've tried dozens of others and none compare.
