like for example, one time i was browsing through some neofetch screenshots and i found out that a lot of them have anime or furry stuff as their wallpaper or profile picture, but they use linux. hmm or maybe they even have proprietary videogame images!! i used to think that was bad but now i realize that even if you have proprietary stuff as images like, furry fanart of some proprietary videogame, it’s like just a picture, a jpeg. but still, younger me would’ve freaked out by the idea of having proprietary files, but i still enjoy linux. what do you think?? please
There’s nothing more foss coded than furries
This is the most unhinged shit I ever read
We really need a Linux circlejerk community for this type of thing.
my brain is so fucking cooked I can’t tell if op is joking or just a teenager
umm,i’m not joking or am a teenager, i’m 21, it’s just that when i was 18 and stuff i was really into that, into linux. into free software, and my entire life was about that, i still like gnu but i also like other stuff like the furry fandom!!
I wrote (not only, but some) more intelligent things on the Internet when I was a teenager.
I think they might be using linux for something else other than taking screenshots and being fanboys
What do I think? I think it’s normal to have wallpapers that aren’t related to the kernel of you OS and I’m struggling to make sense of how people setting their wallpaper to something they like could possibly be a problem.
You ok bro? Go touch grass mate
yes i’m ok thanks!!
I don’t think that purity testing people is an attractive method of talking about free software? We should meet people where they are, and besides, if games are good, they’re good. Doom started out as proprietary software and got GPL’d. It’s also cool to think that reverse engineering software, like in the case of OpenMorrowwind, is a thing. Besides, I pirate proprietary software all the time with cracked DRM. The harm is in the restriction of user freedom, not necessarily in the existence of the laws if you view the laws as fake and don’t adhere to them. Let’s talk about cracking DRM and decompiling these games. Let’s talk about modding them. Let’s talk about making servers and playing them online together.
I think people can use what they want as their wallpaper
WTF?
TIL there’s people thinking about stuff like this. Honestly a wallpaper is just some image that you chose to make your desktop nice to look at to me. I think I even used Windows XP wallpapers on Linux for some time.

Well now I suddenly care.
Why the hell do you want to watch the world burn?
;)
Did you know my profile picture is a Windows Vista background? I didn’t until a few months ago.
If I remember correctly I got them from this collection on archive.org and honestly they are just really nice quality pictures. But probably also a bit of nostalgia. 😄
I’ve been a linux user for 25 years.
My computers are all named after Autobots and my wallpaper on each computer is a picture of that computer’s namesake from one of the various continuities.
That’s just how I roll out.
'till all are one. o7
If you’re a furry Linux user, you’re only allowed to use desktop backgrounds of Xenia. :P
Assuming you’re serious and I’m not being whoosed, remember that Linux is a tool, not a cause. Many use Linux because they like Linux, not because they want to purge all non-free things from their life.
raises trans, linux-using paw ^.^
Thanks for bringing this to my attention :3
A wild gunnerkrig fan!
