Maybe I shouldn’t have installed Mint on my dad’s old laptop that won’t run Windows 11. 🤔
“I’m a Mac.”
“And I’m a PC.”
“…and I’m a catgirl. Nya btw :3”
Note to self: convince cute guy friend to try Mint.
Thanks for the tip.
We used to do the same joke, just about beard length instead. I’m not complaining tho
Oh fuck yeah I’m already at the end of the pipeline
I went from windows to mint to debian … did I fuck up?
There are many paths in life, and you chose to follow your own. There is no better way than that.
This is an aside but why is this the highest quality version of this image I’ve seen? I swear whenever I see this meme it looks like it’s been faxed, scanned, compressed, jammed onto a floppy disk, ripped from the floppy disk, and then posted.
All real trans girls use NixOS
Source : I’m a trans girl. Me and literally every other trans girl I know uses NixOS (and I know several dozens)
My journey: DOS > Win 3.1/95/98/2000/XP/Vista/7 > Mac OS > Win 10/11 > Mint > Arch/Debian
Feels good to have finally arrived.
DOS > OS/2 > FreeBSD > Debian > Gentoo > Ubuntu > Mint
I am one step behind you.
Something to look forwards to!
Am fedora user, where ass?
Do squat? Source fedora squatter
Went from Windows directly to Arch and I just became an anarchist and (I’d argue) more masculine. Guess it’s less about Trans and more about becoming more true to yourself.
Ooo its me! Hello.
Free software -> free expression pipeline
Certainly feels like a doomer windows user to hopeful anarchist pipeline to me as well.
Why no Gentoo :( ?
I guess adding Gentoo would make NSFW tag mandatory

Why do people seem to dislike mint? I like mint it works with a minnimum of bullshit.
It’s a “beginner-friendly” distro so people might subconsciously think you should “graduate” to use something “better”.
Which is ridiculous, of course. No reason to switch if it works for you!
I don’t know, I installed Mint last year and it’s been great.
I don’t think it’s a dis. It’s just what people usually recommend to people used to Windows, traditionally at least. Because it’s familiar and just works.
We’re still somehow not over the hipstery conceit that anything with mass appeal is inherently flawed.
Hipsters:
likes something different/uncommon
makes it cool
…
“Ugh. That’s so mainstream.”
judges everyone for liking it.
I can’t speak for others, but for me it works like a charm.
And then NixOS is a t4t polycule
A what?
t4t - trans for trans = two trans people dating
polycule = polyamory, but not every person is dating each other. For example, in a 4 person polycule, maybe person a, c, and d are romantically together, but person a doesn’t date b. Person b ONLY dates person c. Etc.
Some people make memes/jokes about polycules, like “The weakest one of the polycule gets kicked off the island” and stuff like that, or this fascinating Tumblr heritage post (links to RedLib instance) about a polycule commune cult in Portland.
So in this case the OP feels that using NixOS is like being in a polycule with a bunch of trans people, or that it will encourage you to transition and join a polycule.
Thanks you for the explanation :)
Trans for trans
Nix with Lix
Stop doxxing me 😂
Currently on Arch.
Hell yeah, I’ll be a hot woman in no time.
