what OS will unemployed selfimportant losers switch to if Linux becomes too popular
>>107233937some other more obscure and retarded linux distro
>>107233937Linux won't go anywhere we'll just move on to a more obscure distro. First we had Ubuntu, then Mint, now Arch. Who knows what's next for us.
>>107233970I'm already on Gentoo, if Linux goes to hell I'll have to use OpenBSD
I just moved to Linux when I had to develop some Linux stuff. I still have a Windows dual boot to develop Windows software.
>>107233989just use Electron :-)
>>107233937troonix as a desktop OS (i.e Ubuntu/Fedora etc.) will never become popular so no need to worry about hypothetical scenarios that can never happen. you have to understand no linux user thinks this deadshitos is any good, they live in a world of hypotheticals>what IF windows turns subscription only>what IF linux becomes amazing>what IF when wayland or pipewire or gnome or kde or btrfs or xfs or flathub or driver support or software support or hardware support or usage share gets better on troonix!!!The cope is neverending, there must always be a light at the end of the tunnel, the cope dies last, loonix will forever be attractive to 0-5% of population of mentally ill freaks, the likes to either troon out or believe in aliens/lizard politicians/flat earth type theories or edgy commie freetards, but it'll never be anything but that.
>>107233937TempleOS.
>>107233937as an unemployed selfimportant loser I can tell you that fedora is more than enough for me. And I am not switching to anything..though in their latest update I found out that they blocked some essential drivers like h265 for russia and quite a few of their servers are in ukraine..so I was thinking about switching to something Russian to simplify my life a bit..alt or redos if I want to stay on rhel..https://ximperlinux.ru/https://redos.red-soft.ru/https://www.basealt.ru/
>>107233977me too! it's my new favorite distro! :3thinking about OpenBSD too uwu ...
>>107234350your name is NOT John Linux
>>107234398i don't know... it says john linux right there.
>>107233937openbsd is already a thing
>>107233977>>107234350>>107234779cuck license
>>107233937We've all already switched and no, I won't tell you to what.

>>107234008People who actually use linux don't care at all about market share outside of a novel news item unless the increase in market share might impact them in some way. An increase in popularity means a decrease in elitism and a general loss in the quality of reports and contributions as the broader community is comprised of less intelligent and more apathetic people making arbitrary and fickle decisions not based in technical merit.
>>107233937unironically mac os
>>107233937I'm already on the most normie-proof OS. I'll be safe
>>107234008>what IF windows turns subscription onlyNot a hypothetical, they're already forcing their users to stay always online and have a Microsoft account. People with more than two brain cells to rub together saw that coming a long time ago.>what IF linux becomes amazingIt already is, for people who aren't retarded. >what IF when wayland or pipewire or gnome or kde or btrfs or xfs or flathub or driver support or software support or hardware support or usage share gets better on troonix!!!Ah yeah... the Linux ecosystem has multiple options for things like DEs, distros, etc. and sometimes people argue the nuances and merits of using one over the other. Does that confuse your retarded wincattle brain? Does having options make your head hurt? I'm sorry. Maybe you should stick with your Fischer Price OS. It was designed just for dumb cattle like you. You're home there
>>107234010TempleOS and Terry's lore are not obscure by any metric. I've seen lots of videos in my native language by popular YouTubers. Terry is basically a normie tier lolcow by that point, and TempleOS is not obscure at all. I would argue that more people know about Terry and his creation than they know about, say, FreeBSD and Haiku.
>>107233937BSD
>>107236154Not trying to defend Winblows, but>multiple options for things like DEs, distros, etcAre you seriously saying Winblows doesn't have alternative DEs or distros?
>>107236425...No? What are you talking about?
>>107233937In 60 years, GNU/Hurd will be available, which means it should be ready right as Linux reaches 10% market share.
>>107236503>DEsOff the top of my head, there's Cairo, Seelen, Xoblite, and I think there was even a port of KDE4.>DistrosWhat do you think Home, Pro, LTSC, Server, Server Core etc. are?
>>107236584>What do you think Home, Pro, LTSC, Server, Server Core etc. are?It's the same OS, just with different features turned on or off. Plus, they are all made by MS. Linux distros have different architecture and they are made by different teams who implement different philosophies.>Off the top of my head, there's Cairo, Seelen, Xoblite, and I think there was even a port of KDE4.Those are basically skins.
>>107236425Explorer reskins and the exact same OS with more or less bloat depending on which version you install aren't real alternatives.
>>107236685>Linux distros have different architectureDo they? Virtually all of them are different repackages of systemd+GNU+Linux, and it's getting even more standardized with Wayland and Pipewire becoming the default display and sound server. There might have been different philosophies 10 years ago, but nowadays everyone's converging.>Those are basically skinsHaven't messed with Windows for a long time, but I remember that they actually replaced Explorer.
I'm thinking of switching to freebsd went debian goes full retarded with rust.
>>107236822>Do they? Virtually all of them are different repackages of systemd+GNU+Linux, and it's getting even more standardized with Wayland and Pipewire becoming the default display and sound server. There might have been different philosophies 10 years ago, but nowadays everyone's converging.
>>107233937Redox because it's in rust and memory safeHaiku OS because le interesting os designOpenVMS because le Windows but not microsoftSome hypothetical Amiga remake
>>107233937I pray that GNU/Linux actually becomes popular
>>107236822>There might have been different philosophies 10 years ago, but nowadays everyone's converging...And that's a bad thing. Linux is corpocucked enough as it is, the ongoing unification of the landscape is going to completely kill its FOSS ethos.
>>107233937They'll vibecode their own and blow up their bootloader in the process. I give it 3 years max before AI can give you a full working albeit minimal OS.
>>107236118Unless your OS only and exclusively runs on custom made RISC-V chips it isn't safe.>qubesTech tubers have been shilling this for years. It will inevitably happen at some point and you know it.
>>107237548>going to completely kill its FOSS ethosLooking at how viciously you get attacked if you even have the nerve to dare suggest maybe there's something other than systemd/wayland out there I'd say it's dead and fucking buried.
>>107236314so what? nobody is going to use TempleOS
>>107237548why can't he FOSS ethos be something like "it should work"
>>107233937They'll switch back to windows
>>107237936Because it's "it works for me"
>>107236118>perfect distro loads all the bloat cruft of fedora ubuntu and gos knows what ever vm's (and is 100% NOT imune to vm breakout)
If I was feeling especially contrarian. I'd go for Windows 11.
Chads run guix sd, sigmas and trannys run nixos. Gigachads run WSL. Normies run Steamshit.
>>107233937What OS does the Reddit frog use?
>>107239771I went on reddit and there weren't any frogs.
>>107233937i hope linux does become popular, because it will be a true test of it's security posture. if it falls over and there arent enough freedom fighter's to keep up, the market will likely get involved.
>>107242046You just posted the reddit frog again haha
>>107242231Hehe. I've got a whole folder of them. To be honest I found them all on 4chen, not reddit.
>>107242252they are from reddit thoughever
>>107242255OK. I believe you, anon.
>>107233937>unemployed selfimportant losersthose people are using windows 7 though
>>107233937Plan9.
>>107233937You don't need to worry about that. Troonix will never amount to a hill of beans as a desktop OS even with open architecture hardware far in the horizon. It's a loser magnet and a lost cause.
>>107239771>On the froggy website>Spergs out over seeing a frog
Already maining Haiku.
>>107244699Same.
>>107233937it cannot become too popular since there's a limit on the number of people that can deal with it.you would think someone could make it "polished" but that would just be some distro/fork at most. we'll just use what works, kernel + suite of light utilities, normies can never come here.
>>107236391Kek: >>107236853
>>107233977
>>107244687>>On the froggy websiteBut we're not on Reddit
>>107245932If I screenshot this thread you will be.
>>107233937I'm still not completely sure if redox will sperged over first over by trannies or neets. Else my guess is on BSD.
