Yet /g/ is ungrateful!
We should collectively suck gabe's fat chode for proton in general.
RedHat and Canonical have brought nothing but trouble.
>>108485170to this day I am shocked at how people allowed Red Hat to have ANY say over ANYTHING.They are such obvious infiltrators, working on behalf of companies that want to kill FOSS. We really need to bring gatekeeping back.
>>108485170>implying it is in a good place
>>108485183>RedHat contributed/s a massive amount to the Linux kernel, employs many highly skilled paid contributors and maintainers>Ubuntu was the first Linux desktop to go mainstream and brought many new users and developers even if they moved on from Ubuntu
>>108485170valve only flooded linux whit redditor retards who pay for video games and contribute nothing
>>108485170You do realize that the people working in these companies today (jeets/trannies) are not the same as the original white heterosexual nerds that created their reputations?
Canonical is a gang of saboteurs.
Ep. 3 when you fat fuck
>>108485170We can that old Windows XP, 7 and old Mac OS X versions for starting DEI and LGBT stuff. Finally thanks to Apple and Microsoft, others like Canonical, Red Hat and Linux community started also implement DEI/LGBT and rest is history.Even the shitty code of conduct from Windows XP, 7, FreeBSD, Mac OS X was finally forced to Linux kernel and after that we got BSD-tier cuck license also from Windows and macOS to ruin some of the projects in the FOSS community.There is nothing worse than Windows, macOS and BSDs. Fuck you.
>>108485170Actually kinda true
>>108485822>There is nothing worse than the people in charge of Windows, MacOS and BSDs.ftfy
>valve>redhatI guess>canonicalif anything they've been effectively running a sabotage operation ever since unity or mir
>>108485822>MUH LGBT MUH TRANNIES MUH DEILay off /pol/ for a bit will ya
>>108485191>Ubuntu Muslim EditionKEK
>>108485170Linux peaked between 2005-2008, was ok in 2012, and since then it only got worse on the desktop. As a server system it got better.
>>108485170Take your rupees and leave, faggot
>>108486109This, all the effort over the past fifteen years has been to improve it for servers, and niche usecases. Linux as a desktop is either a humiliation ritual, or some problem you want to give yourself because it satiates your autism to solve the puzzle of fixing it.
>>108488246Anon, GNU+Linux on the desktop just works, though. If you are having trouble with it, then you have brain problems.
>>108485170>Comparing Valve to Jewhat and CaniggeralOy vey
>>108488288>just works, though.Wow, never heard that before. In the real world, it never works as well as Windows, and if you cannot tame windows to work as you need, you’re brainless.
>>108488319>In the real worldlol, so long, stranger.
>>108488319Linux works better than windows now, except specifically in cases where devs don't support Linux (either due to gross incompetence or ms kickbacks).
>>108488425No, in general it doesn’t. It may work well enough for your needs, but it’s far from suitable for the vast majority of users. Supporting the “linux desktop” (whatever that may be) isn’t worth the time for most software developers to support, absolutely nothing incompetent about that.
codeweavers doe
>>108485170Those companies would be nowhere without Linux.Linux would be nowhere without GNU.The world would have thrived with BSD even without Linux.Your argument is bad and you should feel bad.
>>108485338Go easy on him man, he cant count to 3.
>>108485170Ah yes. Companies (especially red hat) that were responsible to remove the entire meaning of the projects they built on. Scrubbing all mention of user freedom, free software, copyleft and GNU. Responsible for the corporate "nonthreatening" terms like open-source and Linux. Enough so end users would not see its importance and Microsoft would still have a stronghold over them. They were, and still are, a net negative.
>>108485191my distro isnt even there>tuxedo os
>>108485170I rolled my own distro from source.
>>108489759It should be on the chart. I suppose I will stop posting the image since it is confirmed as shit now. Why GNU+Tuxedo Linux, if you don't mind explaining your reasons for using it?
>>108485170Valve caused people to not demand native Linux apps and now over reliance on WindowsRed Hat commercially made Linux into a paid operating modelUbuntu killed off older versions and software for profit Shut up about their existence for good when you’re ignoring the bad negative feedback.
>red hat: offering shitty private cloud solutions to companies too concerned about data stealing to use public clouds of one of the three hyperscalers (meanwhile their programmers provide data to those via vibe coding anyway)>ubuntu: still as irrelevant as always despite MS and Apple being at their worst>proton: fucking dead thanks to NVIDIA. nobody is buys PCs for gaming
>>108485170I'd argue you could put Oracle in there too. A couple packages I use on my server are written by some old Oracle dudes.>>108485183Red Hat especially is responsible for a huge amount of shit. Canonical contributes to Debian. Archfags, and Linuxfags in general, reap the benefits of Gaben single handedly making gamin on Linux not suck. A huge amount of the Linux world
>>108485177>>108485183
>>108485170Valve??? What the fuck are you smoking?
>>108488470You are not in a position to speak for all users. You may believe what you say, but you have no real and meaningful evidence to support it.The reality is that Microsoft has an incredible sales team that has maintained relationships with C-level decision-makers who decide in backroom deals what OS is going to be used by their employees. It is absolutely nothing to do with being good for the average use case. I've seen it happen over and over.
>>108491002Make huge contributions to amdgpu and wine.
>>108490756get a job
>>108485170Linux was better 20 years ago.
>>108485177>protonit's just wine
>>108492717>You are not in a position to speak for all users.Consult general any desktop share survey you like until you discover that you're wrong. Linux also has an incredibly vocal sales team, freetard evangelists who have been saying the exact same things for over 30 years (go see old forums, you'll see people from 2003 telling you that "linux just does everything you need now"), yet despite this and the fact that it's completely free of charge, it sits at about 2-4%. The reality is that Windows (despite its flaws) just works, and is the most pain free alternative for people that need to get things done, no amount of screeching about "backroom deals" changes this fact.
>>108494709*any general
>>108494549It's the best it ever has been since the nVidia driver plague.
>>108489932>Valve caused people to not demand native Linux apps and now over reliance on WindowsTurning Windows into a common ABI for Linux games is not 'reliance on Windows'. If Microsoft deleted all traces of Windows tomorrow it would matter not one bit for Linux gaming.>Red Hat commercially made Linux into a paid operating modelPaid software was always an intended use case for the GPL. Don't use GPL if you don't want someone to make a commercial version.>Ubuntu killed off older versions and software for profitnani?
yeah thanks red hat for ruining linux
>>108494549Open source was a lot more interesting then, because it really eschewed all the identity politics nonsense. Now you've got RIIR tards in the kernel.
>>108494709Desktop share survey isn't evidence for your claim. Again, you are unqualified to make the claim you made (and now you're schizo rambling about the 'freetards' in you head).
>>108494587no, you fucking bumbling retard, it's because of all the wine patches sent upstream from proton that make wine actually worth 2 cents these days. before proton, wine was a buggy and unstable piece of shit that broke in between release versions because non-corpo open sores contributors are fucking braindead
>>108496361>Desktop share survey isn't evidence for your claimHoly cope
>>108496375I am using only wine-staging and nothing else for years and games work, what are you babbling about
>>108496361Users freely migrate to alternative browsers despite Apple shipping Safari, and Microsoft pushing Edge (and Explorer of yesteryear). If linux made their lives easier they'd migrate to a new OS too.
>>108496510Wrong. OS's are high friction, difficult to change. Most people only pick a new OS when they get a new computer. Browsers are trivial to change. Most people do not even evaluate different OS's before choosing one, if they even get to choose (many employers choose). Nice to see you exposing how utterly ignorant of this topic you really are. At this point I don't even have to say anything about Linux at all, you just keep digging yourself deeper.
>>108496578I don't want to waste anymore time talking to you, because you're clearly an imbecile, but this is too irresistible.>(many employers choose).Yeah, no fucking shit. That's how you organize people to accomplish their task, would you have them aimlessly distrohop throughout paid hours? That's what you do, it doesn't accomplish anything, and we both know you're not even being paid lol.
>>108496431It's simply not. There's nothing emotional about this. It's not hard to understand. People don't try out alternate operating systems. At some point they become a windows user or a mac user. Either becausevthey used it at work, or because that's what was on sale at Best Buy, the overwhelming majority of normalfags simply never even considered Linux an option. Therefore they never evaluated it, therefore you cannot make conclusions about its utility from usage stats.
>>108496654>distrohoppingYou need to step away from the 4chans for a bit as you seem unable to think except in memes and you're unable to form a coherent argument.
>>108490938
>>108496737>>108496765>Linux is good for general users (says you)>General users haven't been exposed to linux (real linux has never been tried!)Very coherent. There is some wisdom in crowds, there are very few barriers to testing out linux, and yet all available data we have shows that users refuse it. Desktop linux has been very easy to install for about two decades, that's plenty of time for ideas to spread. Companies such as Dell have even offered linux pre-installed and all it accomplished was ruining some girl's life.Have you ever considered that they just don't like it, rather than inventing new forms of cope? Are we to pretend that people who pirate windows and install that are incapable of using linux which is free?
