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
my brain is so fucking cooked I can’t tell if op is joking or just a teenager
I wrote (not only, but some) more intelligent things on the Internet when I was 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!!
We really need a Linux circlejerk community for this type of thing.
You ok bro? Go touch grass mate
yes i’m ok thanks!!
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.
I think they might be using linux for something else other than taking screenshots and being fanboys
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?
;)
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. 😄
Who cares?
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!
When you say ‘younger me’ do you mean like four year old you, because eight year old current you doesn’t make sense? I have no idea what the whole point of this post is, other than it must be some chatgpt output someone thought would be funny to throw out.
i’m 21 years old, so sorry, and i don’t use chatgpt
younger me would’ve freaked out by the idea of having proprietary files
That’s good for starters. What do you mean by “younger me would’ve freaked out by the idea of having proprietary files”? Exactly what proprietary files are you talking about? Background pics are usually jpeg, or png, and those are not proprietary to linux, so I think that’s part of what has everyone confused about this. Are you also insinuating that people can only use certain backgrounds based on either belief or their own actual background? I am curious to hear your explanation if you aren’t a llm. And by the way, saying you don’t use chatgpt is exactly what I would expect chatgpt to reply with. LOL. I keed I keed.
Sadly, I think this is a much older, non-AI person who thinks that they’re funny.
