>every year since 1993: "this is the year for linux! Windows is going down!"Can we just go back to the XP days again?
>>84565009I think maybe you should use baby linux for big babies
>installs operating system>Is Indian, 75 IQ>can't use it unless it's like a child's toy
>>84565052>slightest complain about linux>I-I just can't handle it!!!Maybe Baby Linux should be mandatory for all Linux users, seeing how much of a hissy fit they throw at the slightest inconvenience.So I'm asking AGAINWhat is FUN in here? WHERE is it?
>>84565065idk, if linux can't even remember the theme i chose, maybe they are the indians you know?How hard is it technically to have the SAME file explorer on desktop and in Firefox?Are you SURE linux is made by high IQ?
>>84565009I like linux a lot but im forced to use gay ass windows because of work. Might check if i can run a windows VM on a low level on my laptop to do the shit i gotta do from work. Windows 11 fucking sucks.
>>84565009I just use Linux because my antique can't run modern versions of Windows and I was tired of doing workarounds to make modern software work on older versions of Windows
>>84565067Uhoh! Baby needs his binky!
>NNNNOOOOOOO!!! YOU MUST USE MY OPERATING SYSTEM OF CHOICE!!
I would use Linux, but I'm afraid to see what will happen when I try to launch 3D software. I'm pretty sure Zbrush, Substance, 3DS and like every single mod manager and 3rd party software doesn't work on Linux.
>>84565111>Opens file explorer from desktop: can type the directory with the keyboard>opens file explorer from firefox: nah sorry, no text edition it's buttons onlyWhat did Linux troonvalds mean by that?
>>84565009Try Mint (Cinnamon) instead :-)
>>84565111Who are you quoting?Can you please point to the post that says you have to use a specific OS?
>>84565128Will it have the same inconsistencies of ubuntu and it's file explorer situation?Just asking because ubuntu is like, backed up by a literal business yet still can't have such basic things like a consistent theme.
>>84565009>gets filtered by the simplest linux distroYou can rice the shit out of linux but considering the bitchy tone and whining for your hand to be held, I think you're better off sticking to windows
>>84565183I don't know, it seems like it's the linux users that are extremely bitchy and whiny at the slightest of complain about their favorite os.I don't know how I'm getting "filtered" when the theme selection and file picked is broken at the very beginning.
>>84565200they don't do anything with it, they just jack off over the ability to use it. It they actually did anything important on a PC, they would use Windows on at least one device.
>>84565009tell me you are low IQ without telling me
>>84565200You're so right, the problem is linux users and the themes and not you. You should stay with windows.
>>84565214seems like it. All the replies tell me to "do it myself." Like wtf? Why even make distros if you need to fix them up? I don't want to become an IT service jeet at home, I want to use a computer that works.Why are they all bitchy when pointing this out?
>>84565218>Selects theme>Doesn't get applied in all appsWhy? I'm just asking why it doesn't work and you guys keep bitching and insulting.What's so high IQ in making a button work correctly?
>>84565247Why are you so desperate to use linux? It obviously doesn't work and it's not fun. You should stick with windows.
I can usually bullshit my way through most problems with wikis and stack overflow. Sometimes you can get by looking up troubleshooting for other distros with some tweaks. Expect Linux to be janky though.
>>84565271Maybe I was too gulible and wanted to have the fabled "fun computing" meme experience.Honestly, if the steam pc/console thingy is running on linux I have low hopes of it not being a buggy piece of shit.>>84565296It's just sad that people keep saying it "stable and useable" yet fails at very basic things. And when you point this out, you have to face all of the snarky comments from linux users that for some reason, think having a working button is bad?Can't they act in a better way to not sour linux's reputation?
>>84565347Yes, gullible and retarded, which is why windows is the OS for you.Never download linux again and make sure you tell everyone it sucks and the users are all big meanies.
>>84565373Why are you seething so much anon?>You have been muted for 2 seconds, because your comment was not original.lol
If you want something that has a consistent, intuitive user experience, similar to how windows was at it's best, while also being impossible to accidentally break, try debian with kde. it's perfect by default. it's what i've used for over a decade. literally nothing ever goes wrong.
>>84565412Will debian users be as insufferable as those troons above?Will selecting a theme in the config menu make it work in all apps?
>>84565400Why are you throwing a bitch fit about an OS? You're acting like your operating system needs to be "fun" as if it's an expression of your personality. It's a tool. Don't like it? Don't use it. You got filtered by ubuntu so you should stick to using windows
>I don't know how to use the command lineLol just run mint bro
>>84565439>Why are you throwing a bitch fit about an OS? You're acting like your operating system needs to be "fun" as if it's an expression of your personality. It's a tool. Don't like it? Don't use it. You got filtered by ubuntu so you should stick to using windowsJUST APPLY THE FUCKING THEME I SELECTED>>84565456I need to use the command line to apply a theme? Really? "Year of linux on the desktop" fucking WHEN?
>throw a bitch fit>cuss the person out>throw a bitch fit in reaction to a bitch fit>"im not mad, youre mad!!!!!"every time.
>>84565422debian users are stereotyped as boomers who value unpretentious stabilityyes, you can choose dark or light themes by default and that theme applies to both gtk and qt applications
>>84565467>I need to use the command line to apply a theme?If you want rice learn how to cook it mate idk what you want
>>84565467Keep crying, bitch tits.Faggots like yourself need to be gatekept from linux.
>>84565481you probably don't even use Linux and are just one of the resident trolls on the board trolling every single thread lol.
>>84565009Ubuntu more like ewwbuntu hehe hihi haha lol
Linux users just can't handle the truthhttps://woltman.com/gnome-bad/It's like a religion, they make using linux an extension of themselves, of their identity."Insult" linux and you insult them, and many of them are autistic and troons. Their thing skin just can't handle the grating revelations of the shittiest OS ever developed.By contrast, *BSD users actually work in industry and are men and women who "can take the heat".
>>84565467Honestly though if you want a desktop heavy operating system maybe you should just go for one of the forks of Debian or Arch that's built for normie users
>>84565480Selecting a theme from the menu is "ricing" now?>>84565481Being gatekept from the kindergarten is fine lol :)>>84565478>that theme appliesWow! Maybe linux can be usable on the desktop. Is this "theme applies when you select it" some kind of forbidden technology or something? I'm not being mean, just asking because apparently, it's not something people actually want to have?>>84565486ubuntu zoom zooms beaten to death by superior Debian boomer technology xD
>>84565511>Selecting a theme from the menu is "ricing" now?Are you serious? I can't tell if you're fucking with me right now
>>84565467>JUST APPLY THE FUCKING THEME I SELECTEDAnon, there are about a dozen different places you could have gone to troubleshoot this but instead you came to /r9k/ to whine about it.On top of that, you don't sound sincere, so that's even more of a reason to make fun of you instead of help.You are a bitch.
>>84565522Ae you dense? What part ofAPPLY THE FUCKING THEMEDo you not understand?????????Is this an IMPOSSIBLE technological feat for LINUX?????
>>84565532>Is this an IMPOSSIBLE technological feat for LINUX?????No just impossible for shitty desktop environments like gnome. Xfce chads rise up
>>84565527>you're using the wrong OS>you're using the wrong distro>you're using the wrong boardLinux users just keep changing the goalposts as I can seeThe THEME right fucking NOW
>Ubuntu in 2026Just install Cachy you dingus
>>84565485I've been using linux longer than you've been alive, kiddo.>>84565511>Being gatekept from the kindergarten is fine lol :)You're too retarded to use the most basic bitch of all linux distros.
>>84565566You've been using Linux since 87? Wow thats crazy.
ChatGPT says that Linoox oosers are just inferior pathethic beings and that (You) are right (OP)Those responses make sense inside an enthusiast culture, but they sound absurd to someone expecting appliance-level reliability from a desktop OS.
>>84565566>I've been using linux longer than you've been alive, kiddo.Have you ever applied a theme THOUGH?Heh, doubt it faggot.
>>84565541Yes saar install Linux Windows distro click here saar theme be install right away
>>84565576AI btfoing Linux cucks. Pure kino.
>>84565576>Outsources his own thinking to a server that's run on LinuxLol. Lmao even. Some jokes (You) just write themselves
>>84565574Jesus, I can't imagine being that old and that helpless. How do you live with yourself?
>>84565618>i shall ignore the fact that I am acting retarded and deflect anyway! Haha! I win!
>>84565623I don't use Linux, retard. I do actual work on my PC that requires Windows. Shocking.
>>84565511>Wow! Maybe linux can be usable on the desktop. Is this "theme applies when you select it" some kind of forbidden technology or something? I'm not being mean, just asking because apparently, it's not something people actually want to have?modern kde is mature and can be used by normal people who don't want to tinker with shit for hours. they've figured out most of the little annoying things by now and made everything easy. its the desktop valve chose to pre-install on their steam deck, which is a device that appeals to tech-illiterate goyim. you won't have to learn the difference between qt and gtk and why it creates issues, instead you select "dark" in the settings menu and it just works across the board. i'm not even that linux-savvy myself, i only have a basic understanding of how things work but that's more than enough here. i use this computer for work and it never pisses me off with retarded bullshit like windows or mac or fedora (gnome) did.
>Here are concrete examples showing that "theme selected but not fully applied" is a real recurring issue on Linux desktops, not user imagination.>https://discourse.gnome.org/t/custom-gtk-themes-refuse-to-apply/31661/8On X.11, it was common for a long time that the window server would draw the decorations, like titlebar, buttons and border.On GNOME with Wayland though, you can use only "Client-Side decorations", or what has been referred to asBut it also means that the control over the titlebar style has been given from the user over to the application. <----->https://github.com/linuxmint/lmde6-beta/issues/22?As said in the title of this issue, the mint theme doesn't apply on these apps. I guess this is related to GTK4.Not a big issue but harmonization of theming is missing This is why people coming from Windows or macOS get frustrated. On Linux, "theme" is often not one unified system:GTK3 themeGTK4/libadwaita themeQt themeWindow decorationsShell themeIcon themeFlatpak sandbox permissionsKvantumWayland/X11 differencesHOLY FUCKING KEKAROOOINOLinux users just STILL CAN'T have a working desktop environment XD XD XD XD>>84565618>Your proofs are false because of aesthetic considerationsHOLY LOW IQ KEKS RIGHT HERE
>>84565638>windows jew sees linux thread>immediately jumps in to shill his corporate slopExpected.
>>84565632You realize that AI, like social media, tries to confirm what you ask it so that you keep engaging with it, right? Like AI psychosis is already a phenomenon that's happening. You could have it tell you literally anything if you ask it enough or phrase your questions in the right ways. I could make it explain why windows users are delusional too.

>>84565655YES SAAR CHATGPTRINO EVEN CREATED RETROACTIVELY FORUM POSTS ABOUT THIS VERY ISSUE PLS IGNORE LINUX BEING SHIT NNOOOOO ARARARGGHHHH

>>84565645>>Your proofs are false because of aesthetic considerations>HOLY LOW IQ KEKS RIGHT HERENo I'm saying that the proofs aren't proofs because they aren't actually proofs. Outsourcing your thoughts to Chat Jippitty just shows how little of your own thinking you commit to.>>84565672>Didn't read.All chill bro, didn't expect you to

Outsourcing your thoughts to Chat Jippitty just shows how little of your own thinking you commit to.>This anon's posting and experience of life cannot exist outside of what I perceive from his posts. Quick! I must repeat the thoughtslop I hear on redditHoly theory of mind anon!!
>>84565645>On Linux, "theme" is often not one unified systemExcellent sleuthing, detective. A windows shill has made the stunning revelation that linux isn't an OS and the ecosystem is a collection of corporate and personal projects by lots of different people.
>>84565702Well, it just confirms to OP that indeed, linux theming is broken and that "linux on the desktop" is just "india superpower 2012" kind of vibes.
>>84565672Scram, kike
>>84565715>linux theming is brokenThat's why you never see anyone with a nicely riced linux machine, yes. It's not you, it's the system. >"linux on the desktop" is just "india superpower 2012" kind of vibesSo use windows then saar.
>Linux discussion devolved into /pol/ shitFurther proof /pol/ is truly the cancer killing 4chan.
>>84565743You would never see such horrible, vile things coming from Mac users.
>>84565739>nicely riced linux machineThey always use the same apps : a terminal open with the distro logo, some vim and a file explorer.What happens when they use GParted, gimp and other REAL programs though?Their ricing just breaks apart.
>>84565766>Mac usersBecause they're gay fags that pay for a free OS.
>>84565773>here let me show off my theme>lol you're showing off all the same apps that I want my theme to apply to, how about something REAL?Drooling retard windows shill can't keep his story straight.
>>84565692>Holy theory of mind anon!!What mind is actually exhibited here?
>>84565009You don't switch to Linux because it's "le fun", you switch because you're tired of Windows bloat. With that being said, a tranny on Youtube made a pretty good guide on ricing your Linux install. Start there
>>84565804>rices up his distroOk anon, now let's see if your theming can handle all apps. Open qdirstart to see if your pastel colors are applied to this app.
>>84565816Is selecting a theme from a dropdown in the configuration panel "Ricing" now?
>>84565821Windows themes don't apply to all apps either. What are you even asking for?
>>84565837so... this is an impossible tech?
>>84565830Lol, no. This is ricinghttps://youtu.be/jFz5gLqv-FM
>>84565846I have no idea what "tech" it is you even want
>>84565877Getting strong troon vides from linux lol.And how about just selecting a theme and it being applied to the system?
>>84565821>handle all appslol this tard is unreal
>>84565821Imagining anon having a melty because his theme won't apply to every third party app in existence is the cherry on top of this whole shit thread
>>84565922>third party app in existenceit was firefox's file explorer though.Once again, linux users keep making thing up to dodge the reality.
>>84565967You poor soul. You don't even understand how replies work. I'll pray for you.Maybe Jesus will make you less retarded in your next life.
>>84565996>Maybe Jesus will make you less retarded in your next life.I hope! I'll be able to fix linux's shortcomings and finally make it working and not retarded <3
>rices up his troonix using a tutorial>thinks hes high IQWhat did anon mean by that?
>>84565888I just said a troon made a good guide to Linux. Also many trannies use Linux because trannies are ultimately men, and men use Linux because men are tired of Windows bloat.>selecting a theme from the drop downNot really ricing. But if that's what you want to do, no problem. I use the distro out of the box as well and I'm happy with what I have.
another day another troonix humiliation ritual...
