    Shit, this just reminded me of one of my favorite text posts and I can’t locate it because search engines are a wasteland of paid results and spam. any chance someone has it? Description below

    The story’s narrator is walking along when they bump into a stranger. The stranger immediately begins yelling about how [linux distro] is subpar for its intended use case and the narrator calmly replies that the distro excels in specific ways. However, the stranger isn’t having any of it. The story ends without resolution, with the narrator looking for solace in others’ opinions.

      search engines are a wasteland of paid results and spam

      Last night I spent 45mins searching for something that I had found in the top 3 results 8 months ago. It was buried on the 3rd page. None of the other results had anything to do with what I was actually searching for.

        Try typing before:2024 at the start of the search term, it should filter things from 2024 our, and you might find it. Works the same with any other year

      I feel like I’ve read that before, but it wasn’t about linux. Must be a copypasta at this point

        I searched for a bit, hoping for a knowyourmeme page or some such. No dice, but there were several related copypastas to fill the hole. Thank you!
