It shows a picture of a AI generated image of a king and queen referencing them as Omarchy users. Then it shows a floating icon of a jester representing Linux users that pops up some of the following quotes:

  • The peasants whiper the whole distro castle vibe-coded
  • It's a bunch of dotfiles
  • Ricing is not engineering, my liege
  • Congratulations, you have discovered i3
  • Two JPEG's, a gradient, and delusions of monarchy
  • Zero days since the last zero day, sire
  • Coronation was on Tueday, the build was red
  • Wait until they hear about NixOS
  • It's not a distro, . It's a theme folder with a domain name
  • It's the worst distro in the market, they cry. Its not even a distro

I believe this whole thing was done in response of some "monarchy" and "oligarchy" comments on Omarchy around the fediverse. It is also sometimes weird to get the "joke" because the speaker changes.

Not sure if i should downvote this because its a nazi distro, or upvote so more people can learn about that...
I think i will downvote because i want to see less of this "distro".

Oh nothing personal :) I just want to send a signal that I would rather not see more with this topic here :)
I believe that is mostly the point on lemmy - at least on the lemmy's that I frequent.
Upvote = more of this
Downvote = less of this

So i would upvote if it was about any of the real distros, not made by racist scum.

No karma on Lemmy, getting DVs is just isolated feedback so no pressure.
