Nobody gives a fuck about declarative configs. They are evangelical about it. Most users see no difference between it and, say, just keeping your use flags and world file. End result is the same.

You must be a dumbass retarded NPC sheepbrained normal cattle. What makes Linux Linux is freedom of choice. Systemd is systemically destroying that freedom. Today it's forced init and wayland. Tomorrow you'll have no choice. You won't even be able to choose the terminal you want.
And all those modules are controlled by small groups of faggots who have no oversight and no accountability.
The age verification is just one tiny example of they can do whatever they want and there isn't shit you can do. And sooner or later there will be no where to go.
But you don't care becauae you're a stupid iphone using faggot who doesn't even know sudo is.

>>108718676
and i asked, specifically, does it have a fanbase?
regardless of being the most popular, you don't really see people pushing it, not like cachy or manjaro are in /g/
did i make myself clear now?
you fucking retard

>>108718676
>90 percent of linux computers are on Ubuntu you dumb fags
That's because 99% of Linux computers are servers. Also it's no longer even the most dominant server distro and plenty of servers are on Debian or Alpine these days.
But if you look at actual desktop users Ubuntu is at maybe 30% of market share. Maybe up to 60% if counting all Ubuntu-based distros.

>>108723877
This. Mint of all things has a larger fan base than Ubuntu.

personally, I've never seen any Ubuntu user annoying about their distro. If anything is everyone else hating on Ubuntu who are annoying. Buntu users are regulary just doing their stuff and not caring about Canonical fucking them.
Now Fedorafags... holy fuck... bunch of hipocrites just for proudly and permanently beta testing for free.
Archfags well... It's polarizing. It has both cool and annoying users.

>>108725461
>Buntu users are regulary just doing their stuff and not caring about Canonical fucking them.
Same applies to Fedora users. I've never seen any Fedora user being annoying about anything. It's mostly autistic people screeching saying stuff like "Fedora users are just beta testers for RedHat!" and "Your distro is owned by IBM, reee!".

Nah, most Gentoo users don't act like anyone else needs to be using Gentoo unless they want to (at least not anymore, although it was more of a thing back in the day). I think they understand just fine.
>>108730484
I don't know if it's tryhard so much as it scratches a certain itch. Once you know how to use it, it doesn't doesn't box you in like distros where certain decisions have been made for you and it's not really all that hard to maintain assuming you're updating fairly regularly.
I used it for a time and really enjoyed it for what it is. But end of the day I need things to just work with minimal configuration or wait times.

Void is the most based and helpful.
Arch is the most tranny.
Cachy is the most obnoxious. Cachy has a userbase of normie NPCs who barely know what sudo is who think they're 733T HaXoRs because they installed Linux.

Why do faggots and retards and LARPers act like convenience is evil or some shit?

>>108725525
Fedora users tend to be huge "I have real work to do" posts similar to Windows/Mac users, so that's an annoying component.
>>108730404
Gentoo users tend to be friendly and occasionally make threads to talk among themselves about Gentoo updates. Same with Void users (though there is slightly more spam).
>>108715206
Hate to say it but Artix users because they keep spamming and being very confrontational. They need to chill out a bit. CachyOS users are okay. There was a lot of spam in the past, but I think the more spammy among them switched to Artix since the systemd drama. Normal Arch users are irrationally upset at CachyOS users when it's one of the few meme forks that tries to do something a bit different.

For all the above. Not sure what the actual community is like. I tend to avoid most other platforms, so my judgement is based on /gee/. I imagine that's the case with half of the people posting here as well.

>>108731278
>Fedora users tend to be huge "I have real work to do" posts similar to Windows/Mac users, so that's an annoying component.
Well yeah... some people have jobs and real work to do and can't be bothered to fuck around with things.

>>108731271
i have no idea, but it's mainly the control freaks, obsessed and very political retards who make the computer their entire personality or who have no life (just look at the systemd bad crowd, absolutely insufferable).

convenience is good, especially on computers; you gain more time for family, hobbies, work, and relationships. and on linux it's especially good, because everything is very transparent.
