I'm sure they also argue with randos about systemd and down vote any posts about any desktop environments other than the one that they use.

It's probably a tiling window manager. ;)

Even if it's the same DE/WM still downvote them, because they're using it wrong.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as X, is in fact, X11/X.Org, or as I've recently taken to calling it, X11 plus X.Org. X11 is not an display server unto itself, but rather a free protocol of a fully functioning X.Org system ...

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I took it to mean, people who says "I use *, BTW" so like, "I use Arch BTW" "I use Reddit BTW" "I program in HTML, BTW". Maybe I'm thinking of this wrong, BTW.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 months ago

i though the same thing before reading other comments

[–] mrvictory1@lemmy.world 42 points 2 months ago (2 children)

No, I spend my time judging others' choice of software. /s

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (3 children)

solve for x

x = arch

that's pretty much all I've seen here

[–] loaExMachina@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Could be a X.org too

When you get done, can you suck my dick too?

I use x btw

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why not Mastodon?

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I didn't even think about the name of that shitty platform when I jokingly wrote that. Let me be clear that I do NOT use X, btw.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Also using X btw, because I haven't figured out how to get two mouse cursors on Wayland yet 😅

[–] Spiralvortexisalie@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

All my homies hate wayland, what kind of desktop isn’t a file

[–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

I use a computer btw

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Holy smokes. Surely no one on lemmy would announce that they still use x! That place is a disaster!

[edit] oh. I get it now. They just meant they don't think Wayland is ready yet. Sorry.

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 8 points 2 months ago

I use Wayland, BTW.

[–] menemen@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I use Ubuntu btw.

(I am a provocative guy.)

[–] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Kubuntu for me, btw.

[–] sturlabragason@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No matter what the post is I suggest they should just use Linux instead.

It’s better than anything else in the universe.

[–] EatATaco@lemm.ee 15 points 2 months ago (5 children)

"I use lube the masturbate"

"You should just use Linux instead. It's better than anything else in the universe." -sturlabragason, definitely

[–] dezmd@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What do you use, sand?

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 months ago

Some of us like a polished sausage

[–] sturlabragason@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I stand by my earlier statement.

BSD

[–] octopus_ink@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

Finally a reference to arch btw that I can not roll my eyes at. Should be a sticky post.

[–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

I use Arch btw.

Wayland is still too broken for him?

[–] SuDmit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 months ago

First I somehow understood it like X as ex-twitter, and was like, "whoa, never saw it, bit interesting and kinda unique". Then made connection to Arch, and finally then to X11 /xorg. Huh

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 5 points 2 months ago

Ubuntu ain't broke, usually, so I don't fix it.

[–] dukatos@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

I use FreeBSD, BTW

[–] Shayeta@feddit.de 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I've been daily driving the same Arch installation at work without any issues... for the past five years.
