Umm… How old is this meme? You haven’t (really) able to play PC/Steam games on Mac for a while… Also, XFCE hasn’t been a serious contender for a DE (save for a lower end hardware spec) for quite a while now.
This meme might have made more sense if it was comparing to Windows. Comparing it to a Mac now is comical, especially since a lot of Adobe software doesn’t work quite right yet on M* series Mac’s yet (though it is better than at launch).
How old is this meme? Steam just works.

But i can understand if artists really need photoshop they cant do that on linux because adobe explicitly gives no f*ck about any linux compatibility.
I must say if an app doesnt work, mostly its intentionally by the devs, and that sucks. Especially on games with Kernel level spy… i mean anti cheat.
It’s not just you.
Having an all-AMD system certaintly helps.
Is it just me?
Getting Linux to work correctly the first time straight “out of the box?”
Yes.
Idk man, when i started using linux with PopOS as my first distro 5 years ago, i don’t remember anything not working as it should. It wasn’t until i started using arch that i had to do more things myself, which makes sense cause it’s a diy distro.
Lots of linux users just use steam and play games.

How the times have turned.
Wow. But I mean who needs Photoshop and Office anyway? I heard kids these days do everything on their phones?!
“What’s a computer?”
We never say “reinstall the OS”.
I’d understand getting Windows instead of Linux… But MacOS? That things has the usability of a bent spoon.
why are you here.
Well, their username does check out.
Maybe the Linux god just loves me but back on Windows I always had technical issues. From driver problems to blue screens. And since I switched to Linux in 2021 its all literally a perfect out of the box experience. Everything works. No problems. Much more stable. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

This meme needs to be updated, Gimp has CMYK support now.
Still needs 10 million clicks to draw a circle
this is technically a linux meme, so it fits the sub
I’ll leave it up because it’s technically about Linux and technically contains a meme, and somehow I didn’t suffer any spinal damage with that stretch.
This is prime linuxsucks material, yes offense.
but who is it for
Windows admins who are sad they didn’t learn Linux when they were younger
No this is an anti linux meme, so it doesn’t fit sub.
