I might be an idiot, but I’m not going to use a Mac.

This meme also perpetuates the myth that to use Linux you must be an IT person. I just use it as a user.

This meme has the logos of the OSs from around 2007. Back then there weren’t many Linux non-IT users.

I miss those old logos, the new ultra flat ultra simple logos are just so uninteresting compared to that era

I actually prefer the newer ones, i always hated the like shiny 3d type of look. However some companies/designers/whatever do a bit to much nowadays. or should i say to little🤔

This may be a hot take, but I don’t think that on a linux specific meme community we should really care about what puts linux into a good light and what doesn’t. I mean have you seen vegancirclejerk? We are here to laugh and that can be achived by self-deprecating humor or parodying what others think of our system of choice as well.

Yes. Sure. I see. Thanks. Maybe I was too focussed. Non IT people are nerdy too.

Community rules

1. Follow the site-wide rules
2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of “peasantry” to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
