ShitLibs when somebody kills/harms/insults a capitalist, a warlord (“defense contractor”), a capitalist dictator, a war criminal, or anyone with power:

Heres some other cool utilities: https://github.com/rothgar/awesome-tuis

I reccomend trying TUI utilities to get better at Linux for example: btop, fastfetch, ranger, vim, and apt (also ignore anyone who tells you to sudo rm -rf /*)

Also from my laptop that’s running on Alpine Busybox/Linux

Maybe in a decade from now Linux will achive 7.5% market share, maybe

They wont do anything about it because SteamOS is not and will never be a general purpose desktop OS. Its a gaming distro designed to do one thing and one thing well, game. It can do other things but its not meant to, kinda like a reverse MacOS.

Objectively speaking Linux is not a Windows replacement, its a minix replacement and competes with FreeBSD. Not everyone wants Linux and tbh I wouldnt reccomend Linux to most people.

Alpine Busybox/Linux?

The problem is that bluesky pretends to be a fediverse platform but only as an aesthetic, the founders don’t understand the fediverse at all and they have made no real attempt to federate outside of lip service.

Counterpoint, im talking about total system ram usage

2024:

• What are you doing with that 8gb of ram and fourth gen i5?
• Using sway on Alpine (>500mb usage) :3

You mean this Ayaneo Next Lite?

The closest thing we’re seing to what youve said is android handhelds

:333

Mrrp :3

(I wan headpats)

I prefer cat ears and tail plug. Im not a furry, I’m a catgirl :3

(No problem with furrries tho)

Idk, it was some image I found on Unix socks

People keep saying that but I don’t beleive that to be the case. When SteamOS releases a generic ISO a very small (and yes by percentage it will be tiny) portion of tech enthusiasts (it won’t be average gamers, they’ll either get a Steam Deck or use Windows) will install it only to find subpar support. After that a large portion if not most will either reinstall Windows or dual boot (while leaving their SteamOS partition untouched). We see this when trying to run the Steam GamepadUI on other handhelds, you need to use button combinations while on Steam Deck its one button and you get less functionality (TDP, fan curve, etc). Finally let’s not forget the elephant in the room, handheld manufacturers will not ship SteamOS by default or even as an option. Maybe a few handhelds will advertise SteamOS support (which they will not provide official support for and require that you install it yourself) but I doubt any handhelds will ship SteamOS. Windows allows OEMs to easily ship bloat in exchange for money, meanwhile OEMs make nothing from SteamOS.

Its the default choice on one singular handheld device, you can’t even unofficially get SteamOS in other handhelds (only other Linux gaming distros). We are still several months if not years away from a generic SteamOS ISO release and even that won’t gurentee any other handhelds will use SteamOS. In addition most PCs don’t ship with Linux, you need to actively search for Linux PCs.

I just wish people could just understand that what works for them doesn’t work for everyone. I use Alpine Linux not because its the best distro but because I like it. I use Sway not because its the most feature complete UI or even the most lightweight but because I like i3 style wms and Wayland. I use a Thinkpad T440p not because its the most powerful laptop or has the best build quality but because I personally enjoy it.

I guess my point is that I love the software and hardware that I use but I wouldnt reccomend it to anyone. In my eyes thats not contradictory, what’s good for me is great for me because I personalized it to my needs.
