Greed. Ignorance. Intolerance.
Your workout, food, or personal hygiene regimen.
Exploitation, expropriation, or extortion.
Your subjective experience of opening a box, playing a video game, or viewing media.
Sports culture. Betting, fantasy leagues, statistics. I immediately flatline if the conversation turns to it
Some folks get deep into D&D and build encyclopedic knowledge on estoric spell combos, some delve deep into trains, and some memorize how many lifetime touchdowns Joe Namath has. Dumb, but I understand it.
Meh, even that is different. One facilitates an activity YOU partake in. The other is an activity you watch others do. Obsessing over how well grown men perform at children’s games is odd. Structuring your weekend around observing other people exercise while you sit on the couch…is weird.
Short form content that isn’t a to the point tutorial.
Hell, on that note, tutorial videos where the person rambles on and on and on before finally showing you what to do. I came for a tutorial on how to do something and not a blog!

I think it’s funnier if I just never attempt to “get it”

Hmm…
I’d argue against houses/living space (what is reasonable) but the other stuff: Yeah.Example:
I’d like a living space with 3-4 rooms with a nice garden.
Do I need that much when I could suffice with just 2? No.
Would I like to, to do my hobbies and interests? Yep
Furries. No hate, just not even remotely interested.
And anime.
This would have been my top line comment. I wish anime wasn’t such a glaring blind spot for me, because it’s something so many people connect on. But I see it like reality TV. There’s 1000 shows with 1000 episodes each, and some shows are probably great, but I’ve never been interested.
I’m a furry and even I don’t get most furries, haha!
Like, I’m here to be an animal. I heard “people who like to be animals” and went “whoa, sign me up!” and it turns out a lot of furries DON’T like to be animals, they just… pretend to be animals but “oh that’s a character not really me” and they still consider themselves human…?.. also they’re only half-human-half-animals, not actual animal shape either?.. I don’t get it
turns out most of the actual “I’m just an animal” animals are the therians instead (once I found them I decided I’d be both). I’m still a non-character, non-anthropomorphic (the furry jargon for normal animal shape is “feral”) furry though, and the anthro furries can just deal. :3

Nope! I’m a wolf! :3
I’m trans, but for species instead of gender. Yeah that’s a thing. 🐺

I used to think that, but then I realized human brains are kind of a mess so if weird things happen it’s fine as long as nobody’s hurting themselves or someone else
If that’s what they feel good for them, validity isn’t a pie and more for a weird niche group isn’t less for the rest
And if they’re trolling you’re failing responding to trolls 101
Linux. I don’t want “using the computer” to turn into a hobby that I need a computer science degree for.
That’s one of the reasons I switched from Windows to Linux.
Every single patch and every single version upgrade made using worse as all the settings changed weirder and weirder and hidden or missing.
Yes, I have less issues that needs to be fixed, or tweaked on Linux than on Winslop. Less popups that appear out of nowhere, and no forced upgrades while being on the toilet
There’s so many options for Linux though. Mint is super beginner friendly and doesn’t focus on the terminal. You don’t have to set up Arch your first time around.
Thank you for confirming that, yes, we are on lemmy.
Lol, touché.
Which one is “literally just legally distinct windows 10”?
Anything with the KDE desktop!
That’s a neat thing about Linux, the look and feel is actually totally separate from the distro. Everyone focuses on distros when really, that’s mostly under-the-hood stuff, the look and feel is the desktop environment.
KDE is windows-10-like (out of the box, you can also rearrange the crap out of it, ours is set up more like Mac!) and also happens to be one of the most full-featured desktop environments, so you won’t be missing stuff (like HDR support or whatever).
So, a distro with KDE.
Debian is great if you want something that Does Not Break on you. Ever. It will never throw you a curveball with an update. That also means you just won’t really get updates very much, outside of a Big Major Upgrade every couple of years. If you’re tired of Windows Update screwing with you, Debian’s perfect.
Fedora is pretty good if you want the new shinies all the time. Major updates every 6 months. Debian has a bigger appstore and even stuff that isn’t in there often provides .deb packages, which Fedora can’t run, but it’s not a huge deal.
Mint doesn’t have a convenient KDE version (but you can install KDE after the fact). It has its own desktop called Cinnamon. More Windows 7 vibes. It’s based on Debian so you get the Debian compatibility, as well, and they put work into making sure you have GUI apps for stuff like installing drivers (Debian you might need a terminal command or three during initial setup).
There’s also immutable distros like Bazzite, which is basically SteamOS But Desktop. It also comes with similar restrictions to SteamOS, though. Good for an Appliance Computer, an absolute fucking pain if you ever need to install drivers/VR stuff/other system software or what-have-you. I’d avoid for your main computer.

It looks like debian with KDE would be worth looking at. How do I obtain this?
Edit: Oh it’s free, I just googled it and it came up.
Oh it’s free
My least favorite thing about Linux is that I can’t pirate it
