    I’m so happy.

    But also liked when linux felt like a secret.

    Microsoft finally did something right: they made their shitty product shitty enough for people to realize it.

      Don’t worry. You can still tap into that sweet sweet Linux elitism by running an Arch based system or a tiling window manager.

        I’m sorry, can you clarify what you wrote? I read it but then got distracted by my cursor moving on its own while I was reading an article about xzutils. Perhaps I should read it again since it made no sense the first time.

        I think Gentoo with no binaries should be the new archlinux. I’ve literally used archlinux virtually unchanged outside of updates for years now. It’s been trouble free outside of some minor bugs and I change my settings in the kde settings panel 90% of the time.
