How do you feel about Linux becoming more popular?

it should be good overall but it makes me fear that corporations will find a way to enshittify it somehow if it becomes that popular
most golems don't actually care about muh freedumbs, even if they larp as caring
>it doesn't make a difference if it's open source, I (nor you for that matter) are going to read the code anyway
>how do I play genshin impact on linux?
>why do you waste so much time learning how your computer works? ubuntu just works!

good, but many vendors don't port their software to linux, which is sad

>inb4 wine

no, thank you, I'm just running specialized software in a VM

 β„–35660[Quote]

>>35657
Canonical already enshittified Ubuntu with snapd and Rust coreutils replacing GNU

 β„–35662[Quote]

>>35657
since it isnt one monolithic thing, even if corps enshittify a majority of distros, there would still be community maintained distros to escape to

 β„–35663[Quote]

>>35660
Ubuntu is so shit i switched my Linux mint from being ubuntu based to being debian based
though im thinking about switching to debian outright

How do you feel about a rusted out tractor that you can hardly source parts for and most people end up telling you that you need to literally create parts from scratch yourself to make it do what you want it to do?

 β„–35666[Quote]

>>35663
you do realize that debian stable contains old packages? I'm ok with this, but for many this is not acceptable

 β„–35667[Quote]

>>35665
do you know metalworking? can you weld? if yes, you can actually make parts, as long as you have blueprints

 β„–35669[Quote]

>>35666
I dont understand why people arent ok with old packages, i like old shit more since its more stable

 β„–35670[Quote]

>>35669
many people want new features from latest versions of the software, so it is understandable

 β„–35672[Quote]

Its going to be a bad thing in the long run. Normgroids will start using linux and linux will cater to them. Its bad enough with the tranny infestations in many projects. Imagine what it will be like when software is made β€œaccessible” for the goyim.

There should be an appropriate iq filter so idiots cannot use it and thus cannot brap it up

 β„–35694[Quote]

As people come in major distros will adapt to be more like windows and get more locked down to prevent people from shooting themselves in the foot (you can already see this with immutable distros).

 β„–35695[Quote]

>>35690
The IQ used to be the actual operating system

>>35694
And also snap, flatpack and all the other β€œsandbox” package managers. The only one of those that is actually good is guix. Linux is remarkably more difficult to use now than 10 years ago because of all this extra stuff

I think the main thing stopping normies from using linux is the mystique of it being an impossible to use operating system with no useful programs
<
my friends would tease me for using linux when they didn't know a thing about it, this is when I was too much of a noob to realize that ubuntu and flatpaks were terrible
anything that requires a terminal window or that doesn't have a GUI or that might required 2 minutes of troubleshooting petrifies them
<
I suppose it could depend on the types of people that are switching over, if there's enough profit to be made from (((supporting))) linux or (((supporting))) new users then it could become bad
the gamer golems who are content with installing a kernel level anti-cheat to play a competitive game that they actively hate or a lolipedo who wants to put the money he's not spending on a family towards gambling on another chink slop anime gatcha game for example

 β„–35699[Quote]

>>35696
The gamers are the ones who will switch first. A descent amount already build computers and are somewhat technical. Also they love rgb lights and how they're setup looks, so they'll be ecstatic at being able to change their de (they'll all end up using hyprland)

I want to use linux and i have a tiny bit but yeah im petrified of no gui and no terminal so i dont use it

 β„–35717[Quote]

direct them all to noobuntu

 β„–35720[Quote]

I already switched fully to bsd because of this, but the signs have been here for years. Do not think even for a second that linux will be immune to enshittification. It will become shit, matter of fact it already is pretty shit by my standards. I say we have 10 more years on bsd before it becomes shit too.

 β„–35722[Quote]

normies cant read docs and touch terminals so they install shit that does everything automatically for them.

Cuck license

>>35738
nobaldi gives a phono about your gpl shilling only for you to never write a line of code. just use your pisi to coom to 'p and paste "cuck license" on every mention of bsd on sharty like you do all day

ohnononono what is this Linux sissies

 β„–35771[Quote]

>>35720
Linux became shit the day that rust was allowed into the kernal (Or the day linus got the idea to make linux). Whatever linux is in 10 years will be something almost entirely free of gnu. Most rust rewrites and new rust software is mit shovelware.

linux growing could lead to people becoming more tech literate especially if it becomes popular in offices and schools so its a good thing
