Is the joke supposed to be that vegans can't read instructions?

totally anecdotal.... but i've installed debian on a bunch of different machines and i've never had to "prepare additional installation media" for any weird hardware/firmware/drivers.... i just installed the base system and connected ethernet if any non-free stuff is needed. has anyone ever come across an ethernet interface that didn't work out of the box? maybe it didn't work 100%, but at least good enough to download the proper firmware to fix?
Well, my laptop doesn't have an ethernet port. When it happened to me (not on Debian, I think Mint or something), I didn't even use a phone OS that was capable of sharing my internet via USB. Fun times.
My old ThinkPad has non working ethernet. When I moved it to Debian after Ubuntu made 32 bit hard a non-free USB was by far the best way to get online
Some wifi drivers. It's because of the Debian philosophy of never using non-free (as in speech, not beer) software.
Thats why i said you just need a few minutes on ethernet.... Although i can see the problem these days with a lot of laptops shipping without ethernet ports
These days Debian ship with non-free firmware in the default installer, so laptops without ethernet isn't a problem.
Fake. What about installing the GPU drivers?
If you know what your doing you can install arch faster than debian or fedora
But I don't know what I'm doing

"Vegan" lmfaoo
I've had Ubuntu and derivative distros break on me infinitely more times than I've ever had Arch or its derivatives break at all.
Usually going from one major update of *buntu/Pop based distro to another.
Using Endeavour ATM, but tempted to give NixOS a crack and see what it's like...
I am a vegan with a manbun, but I use Fedora.
I use cloister by the way.
It's like arch but you reinstall it at least 10 times in a row before you get anywhere.
I started installing it about a year and a half ago and I think it's still not finished. The best distro is the one you can using during installation.
