i like how i legitimately cannot tell if im in 196 or linuxmemes most times :3
The Venn diagram showing the users of 196 and Linux is more or less a circle.
And the diagram between those who use Lemmy and Linux is close to being a circle, but not just quite there yet
!196@lemmy.blahaj.zone 🤝 !linuxmemes@lemmy.world 🤝 !unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone
they’re the same picture
Just because I’m gay doesn’t mean I use Linux…no wait, Just because I use Linux doesn’t make me…well I am gay but…dammit!
I’m not gay but I certainly talk about femboys a lot more than I used to.
What Linux does to a mf
That’s how it all starts. First, you just find anthropomorphic characters “hot”. Next, you realize you were gay all along. Everything afterwards happens in a flash. Before you know it, you’ve picked a side in the systemd wars, you swear by ZFS, have memorized
ESC :q!
by heart and changed your 'sona into a FOSSaWhy do so many people feel bothered about this? It’s not like the comunity is associated with a political party or something due to this. Also it’s a meme comunity and this is a meme, what did you expect?
Eh. Furry is one of the few punching bags that people feel it’s safe to attack nowadays. I’ve seen some people say that that attitude just a modern expression of homophobia.
I feel if you’re still making fun of furries at this point and not just ignoring them and moving on with your life, you need to pull yo ass out of 2005 and get new jokes. That Vanity Fair article was like almost 20-fucking years ago.
Edit: I take that back after looking it up, it was OVER 20 fucking years ago.
Why do so many people feel bothered about this?
I compare the reaction to that Seinfeld episode where George gets a massage from a male therapist and then spends the rest of the ep flipping out cuz he got a mild chub from it. People who freak out don’t like that it made them horny-adjacent
Wrong take on my end at least. Doesn’t feel relevant to me in the least bit. I’m secure in my sexuality, but I don’t think sexualizing animals is funny no matter what. It’s cringe every time.
Welp, apologies for offending the furries who down voted.
We in that linussy?
Famously Gay Creature:
Oh hey, you like Linux?
Some people here:
Stay back foul incubus! My faith in my heterosexuality shall protect me from your wily charms! Stand down, beast, for I invoke the word of cringe!
Nothing against this, it takes all sorts and stuff you know.
But in my day Linux users were either smug greybeards or nerds with glasses thick like the undersides of bottles.
But you do you, internet! Ä
Yeah so there are still young nerds, they’re just all trans women now.
Isn’t trans a sort of open source tinkering with the biological systems you own?
Runtime patching if you will
I like Linux. I am not gay, not trans, not furry, and I absolutely hate the shit out of anime/manga/anything in that shit art style. I have a wife and kids.
Idk how to fit in; I’m immune to linux side effects somehow.
Sounds like serious insecurity. A lot of these memes are more along the lines of queer folk finding an accepting community and having fun posting things that would normally result in cyber bullying.
Also the boykisser thing has always just been a joke. Don’t take it as an insult or something.
No it’s lack of delineation.
I want linux memes about linux. Period. When I come to Lemmy I don’t want sports, I don’t want yiff, I don’t want anime, I don’t want social issues, I’m here for the linux.
I’m glad people are finding a place, but I’m not sorry if internet snark is just too much to handle when it looks off topic.
