I’m going to start this article off by saying that you don’t have to be born in the boomer generation to be a boomer. You can be a boomer by acting like one. Hate new stuff? boomer. Run a desktop from the naughties? Boomer.

    Totally useless “article”. You learn nothing, you have to navigate between poor writing with high usage of explectives. It’s like reading a 11 years-old rebel child blog.

    tdrl: he use Arch linux, boomers…

      When I reached the essentially “I use arch btw” I assumed it was just badly written satire.

    Why even bother having words at all if we’re going to redefine them for clickbait?

      What clickbait? Linux boomers is two words and it is common to call people a boomer if they act like one. Linux boomer describes a specific type of boomer.

        I’m sure there is some worthwhile content in there, but I couldn’t discern it through your palpable contempt for the reader.

    For someone who hates these “Linux boomers”, you’re using Wordpress, which uses the good old PHP.

    Shouldn’t you be working on your own minimal Gopher website or something like Rust-SWC, with all that fancy hydration and hybrid SSR-SSG framework?

    People can have opinions. You, on the other hand, need to mind your business.

    And yes, I’ll take your advice and move over to Guix. Shepherd and Guille looks pretty fine to me.

    To quote the author himself:

    Great, do whatever you want. Just shut the fuck up about it, nobody cares.

    But then he proceeds to do the exact opposite and posts a vitriolic rant about how everyone who doesn’t use what they use is, in their words, and idiot.

    Read through the article. Well… words were said sure. Were they well written words? I’d argue not. I get the sentiment, use what works for you. This article isn’t informative, it just calls the reader a fuckface among a slurry of other lame insults. If it was supposed to be funny, the humor isn’t my brand.

    I like using arch, and I like using and testing out what’s new.

    Stable doesn’t mean old, and it doesn’t mean better or worse. Stable is stating that it has been tested, arguably thoroughly tested.

    This article did nothing but waste the readers time. Nothing was gained from this.

    I think a boomer wrote the article.
