Why does this distro make redditors seethe so much?

>>105721851 (OP)
I dont' care why plebbitors seethe, or anyone else for that matter.

>>105721851 (OP)
It unashamedly markets itself as being beginner friendly and easy to use whilst also being a decent distro.

>>105721851 (OP)
because its easy to use its not the best but it just works

I am windows user, is this thing a good start to linux?

>>105721925
Absolutely. It was a great start 15+ years ago.

>>105721934
Well i guess im 15 years late for the party

>>105721851 (OP)
Is this site reddit now?

>>105721851 (OP)
Since when? The Linux Mint subreddit is one of the most popular on the site.

>>105721941
Does it matter? 4chan is mainstream now.

>>105721939
Well, as long as you keep your Windows, you can leave at anytime. At least you are trying to have fun. ;^) Knowing how to use all the OS available, Windows, GNU+Linux, Macintosh, Haiku, Solaris, etc is an incredible way to learn the truth.

>>105721851 (OP)
Its antisemitic therefore bad(good)

>>105721968
I wanna learn to read terminal shit, why does this work, what @#$& does in that command, how do i instal x thing in y...

>>105721987

>>105721987
Have another

>>105721987
one more for the road

>>105722018
I'll read it, thanks

>>105722025
That is a lot of reading. I would take tiny bites and swallow them down with gulps og Github Copilot and Google Gemini. :3

Leads people down the correct path and protects them from gnome molestation which typically leads to people abandoning Linux. I am thankful the gnome foundation loses more and more money each year and both mint and KDE based distros are the reason

>Why does this distro make redditors seethe so much?
It doesn't. Redditards are the only ones who still use it. They're just as antisemitic as Linux Mint developer.

>>105721851 (OP)
A distro without thumbnails in file picker cannot be taken seriously.

>>105721968
>trying to have fun. ;^)
do freetards actually enjoy using their os?
liking programming does not make me enjoy tinkering

>>105721997
>>105722011
>>105722018
brilliant, thanks

>>105721851 (OP)
Why do you always try to use that as a marketing strategy? It's really fucking dumb and manipulative, like you have no respect for the people you're addressing. What a fucking piece of shit.

>>105722819
It's bullshit too, because it has no thumbnails in file picker. This makes it terrible distro for 4chan users, but probably isn't as big of a drawback for reddit users. It's a distro literally for non-4chan using redditors.

Why does GNOME make Redditors seethe??

>>105721941
It's been Reddit for the last ten years, anon

>>105721941
>now

>>105722866
Nemo definitely does have thumbnails, idk why you screeching trannies keep complaining about this

>>105722866
>he uses file picker instead of dragging files into reply window
you're not a real 4chan user, redditor

>>105722453
I find learning fun. I find applying knowledge I learned fun. I find expanding on knowledge using my god given intelligence to learn new things on my own fun. Am I a freetard, maybe. Do I enjoy using my OS, of course. If I didn't enjoy it, I wouldn't do it.
>liking programming does not make me enjoy tinkering
Yeah, but liking programming does not make you unable to enjoy tinkering.

>>105721851 (OP)
Its actually easy to use, and it is not beholden to the red hat cabal.

They WANT you to use fedora and get bought into that ecosystem, not something else.

every windows post on reddit gets plagued with "use linux. linux mint is easy, haven't looked back" so much that the more tech illiterate person could believe that the meme is "I use mint btw" and not arch
that's it really

>>105721997
Best and most thorough cheat sheet I've seen to date. Thanks, troon.

>>105721944
This: it’s the Reddit distro by excellence.
At this point if you want to be a contrarian in the year 2K25 like a true /g/etard you have to rock Ubuntu

>>105725250
It is a website which has more information availabe, double nigger faggot.

>>105721851 (OP)
why are people in this thread calling Mint antisemitic? did they make some statement about Palestine or something?

>>105727836
Disregarding the fact that antisemetic is a meaningless term and is not code for "any criticism of Israel whatsoever", the main dev showed support for Palestine, then later backtracked to make a politically neutral statement in order to put it behind him. If anything he's a coward not an antisemite.

>>105721851 (OP)
Same reason it makes /g/ seethe: it kinda, sorta works (by Linux standards anyway). So freetards lose their last reason they have to live, which is "typing line noise into a terminal 16 hours a day trying to keep my install from destroying itself".

>>105721987
You learn that best by doing. Just ignore all the infodump images other anons posted, just use Linux and look it up whatever whenever you need to. The only important thing you need to know as a beginner are the commands for you package manager, since that's how you install shit. It's usually just sudo pacman -S <package> on Arch-based distros or sudo apt-get install <package>.
If you just play around/experiment/explore and try to use your Linux install (and the command line) as much as you can and browse Linux communities you'll eventually just learn all this shit naturally. It's much better to actually come into a real situation where piping a command into grep to find the information you want is the best way to do things, and learn that by doing instead of just trying to memorize all those bash utilities beforehand.

What the fuck are you talking about? I've NEVER seen anyone actually "seethe" about Mint. Just people going "Oh wait, you should probably use X or Y. It's better."

Only seen jews seethe about Mint

>>105721851 (OP)
It's the neonazi distro.

>>105721851 (OP)
Best distro with CachyOS.

>>105721851 (OP)
>trying to generate drama using mint
Stop it, Mint is a genuinely great distro that just works we don't need flamewar bullshit.

>installed XFCE edition on an old Core 2 Duo Acer Aspire Z5600 AIO with 0 problems the other day
Might upgrade that sucker to a quad core CPU with more RAM just to see if it can truly shine 15 years later

>>105721851 (OP)
There's no distro that can replace the macOS. If you aren't using a mac, you are missing out. Thinkpads suck, mac is where it's at. Why don't you consider heading to the apple store to get a macbook today? Or perhaps you can buy it next week.

>>105733090
I seem to recall a "job" is something of a prerequisite too - either that, or rich parents.
So, uh... you're definitely preaching to the wrong crowd here.

>>105721851 (OP)
tinkertroons hate linux mint since it just works and let's you focus on other things instead of fixing your pc all the time. sadly, your average redditor has nothing else to do on his computer except for ricing his desktop and fixing arch

>>105724152
>not beholden to the red hat cabal
it comes with systemd and flatpak by default though

>>105721851 (OP)
>Why does this distro make redditors seethe so much?
Does it?

>>105721851 (OP)
Every single distro I've tried has had problems with gaming, but not Linux Mint for some reason. Trust me, I don't like using forks and would rather use Debian but Debian has lots of setup and problems for an Nvidia user like myself, so Linux Mint it is.

>>105721851 (OP)
Redditors use linux because they want to FEEL like they are better at computers than the average normie.

I use linux because I love free and open source software despite its problems. We are not the same.

Reddiors seeth because it makes linux accessible to more people. It's literally that simple.

it works and requires little to no tinkering which means its made the way its supposed to be
its antithetical to the tranny lifestyle of tinkering with their bodies till they resemble a disgusting freak monster that identifies as female (arch)

>>105738301
Oh yeah? I use Linux because it's easier to use than window.

>>105738322
Very true, when I helped my grandma get a new computer, I put Linux mint on it and added my ssh key so i could troubleshoot for her remotely. She loves it. Perfect facebook machine.

>>105721851 (OP)
I switched from Windows 7 to Mint last year and it was the best tech related decision I've made in decades. This was after trying Ubuntu and a bunch of other distros over the years and not getting a feel for them at all. They seriously checked all the right boxes with Mint.

>>105732490
i thought artix was the certified chud distro though
