If this holds up, then mint users are rocking a thirty year old one cup drip machine that only has one button, and only makes one regular mug at a time.
Debian user here, something wrong with getting the maximum lifespan you can out of devices and keeping them out of landfills?
Before I upgraded last year, I was still using an i7 from 2010 with 8GB RAM and a 1 TB mechanical spinning drive. I jumped to a 12 core socket AM5 Ryzen 9 with 64GB RAM and a 4TB SSD. When I upgrade, I do it all at once and make sure it can last and actually do use the machine for a decade or more. The one before the i7 (which is now a hand-me-down Minecraft box for my kid) was an Athlon XP from 2002 (still got that one in the basement, any retro collectors wanna clean it out for me? Case comes with big Quake and Nine Inch Nails logo stickers on the front applied by yours truly in my edgier days lol). In the span of 30 years I will have owned exactly three daily driver PCs.
I am totally this meme. My vehicles seem to follow the same pattern as well. Jumping from a tape deck to a touchscreen was fun.
(I've been using docker for 7 years or so, and it's always some bullshit like undocumented environment variables or bullshit password limitations or broken smtp implementations or the repo just assuming you are the actual dev and giving no fucking instructions at all or the container shitting itself for no motherfucking reason at random times and you try to fix it and it goes well and then you wake up and it's restarted several times through the night...)
And after you have learned Linux, download any distro that lets you work on your projects with the least hassle and get work done without fiddling around in every aspect of the OS.
At least that's what I've observed among older users who see the OS as a tool and not a hobby in itself.
My last bean to cup machine cost 180€, my new one costs 600€. Most espresso machines cost more than that, some people pay 180€ for just the grinder alone
As a Ubuntu user, I would never touch a kureig or whatever the hell it is. Those pod things are beyond stupid and you end up needing 2 for a normal sized coffee. Font forget the absurd cost for extra garbage.
No joke, I've had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it's working great. It's probably going to last me ten years. There's barely any parts to break.
I wonder if NixOS is a vacuum coffee maker for how confusing nix looks when you see it for the first time or instant coffee for how reproducible it is...
Nix is setting up a Rube Goldberg machine that brings you freshly made coffee straight to bed every morning: a lot of extra effort for the same cheap instant coffee.
The software philosophy of the maintainers and their choice of packages and design.
A simple but important difference: the package-manager: apt, dnf or pacman (there is more but let's bring it down to these three).
Another one is security: apparmor or selinux
The last one are preferred and preinstalled Desktop-Environments.
And if you want to keep it simple, just be based on another distro and let them do the hard work.
Everyone can start their own distro. Manage some packages together, choose for example: Based on Arch, pacman, selinux and hyprland-wm and name it hypearch. Et voila!
I'm gonna claim "the coldbrew" for us, because it's always refreshing, chill, and in constant rotation. It might take a little longer to brew, but that's so it doesn't destabilize your entire system. Ahh...so smooth. :)
(I dunno if this analogy holds up but hey I'm taking a shot lol)
I drink this one kind of instant coffee that does not even need me to heat the water, I can just mix it in cold water and be good with it. It's still coffee and I don't have to make the slightest effort.
Either a hand pump with mechanical advantage or a lever-based machine with a long enough bar to make it easy - at least those are the manuals that I'm familiar with
I just want to pound my coffee and get to work. I finally gravitated to Fedora because it's clean and just works. Too much setup on my Arch and Gentoo installs with way too much breakage. It's fun to customize and tweak distros like those to an obsessive degree, until you actually need to get work done.
I use espresso, pour over, and v60 carafe from this image. But I now pretty much only use Deb and Fedora, and the occasional OpenSuse. Arch was fun, but too constantly "hands on" for use as a daily. Ubuntu used to be good (past tense). I got annoyed with constant manual compiling with Gentoo, but am considering going back to it anyway.
I have the second one, it takes about 2 minutes to make a cup of espresso, most of the time unattended, I've had it for 15 years, and yeah, it took some time to learn how to use at first.
Same here. I think we're Puppy Linux or XUbuntu maybe? I'm trying to pick a distro that's different, while also killing conversations among enthusiasts... Because all of my coffee enthusiast conversations inevitably die when I I mention tea.
this is beautiful. I don't drink coffee, but "I don't need anything more" is my life ethos from everything to my IDE to the wooden backed kitchen chair I game on.
A cezve (Turkish: cezve, pronounced [dʒezˈve]; Serbo-Croatian: džezva / џезва; Arabic: جِذوَة), also ibriki/briki (Greek: μπρίκι), srjep (Armenian: սրճեփ) is a small long-handled pot with a pouring lip designed specifically to make Turkish coffee. It is traditionally made of brass or copper, occasionally also silver or gold. In more recent times cezveler are also made from stainless steel, aluminium, or ceramics.
Orange is a powerful platform to perform data analysis and visualization, see data flow and become more productive. It provides a clean, open-source platform. It was developed by The University of Ljubljana under the GPLv3 license.
Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia, located along a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, north of the country's largest marsh, inhabited since prehistoric times.
I mean...the cartoon has basically all kinds of coffee prep excepting french press, aeropress and the various ways to make cold brew. Are you talking about instant coffee? Because that's definitely windows....
Gentoo and Fedora should be switched. Poor over people are always snobs demanding perfect grinds, perfect water temperature, and perfect pour overs. Espresso users are the same but I like espresso and fedora lol
Pour overs are very forgiving and will give a decent result if your new or just eyeballing measurements but also if you want it exactly like you like it you'll use a scale.
Fedora IMO is pretty forgiving and if I want my Fedora install exactly how I like, I'll follow the same steps as always when configuring and setting up.
From a sample size of 1 (me) PopOS users prepare their coffee with an Aeropress.
Seconded.
Pop OS is the same machine as the Ubuntu but with RGB.
If this holds up, then mint users are rocking a thirty year old one cup drip machine that only has one button, and only makes one regular mug at a time.
Uncanny -- I'm still using the little free drip machine I got with my Gevalia subscription and Mint!
?
@[email protected]
Kind of! My has a little 3-cup carafe, but otherwise very similar.
Jfc, that's where I got mine!

I thought this necromancer thing was a common linux feature... Debian rocks
Based beyond belief
debian sid checking in.
The ultimate coffee device for max lifespan is vietnamese phin filter. $10, will never break.
I have a French Press
Hey y'all, this one is an Apple user!
...but that's a good thing because Apple is certified UNIX.
I have the Chemex and a Mac.
The price of real (good) filters fits with the Macs unfortunately.
I'd say French press ≈ Linux Mint.
Intuitive, easy to use and maintain, but despite the lack of fuss still delivers great results.
As a French press/Mint guy, I guess I have to agree.
Cold brew French press running mint, checks out.
Where does instant coffee fall in this paradigm?
Containers from dockerhub
Might reevaluate the "instant" part, then.
(I've been using docker for 7 years or so, and it's always some bullshit like undocumented environment variables or bullshit password limitations or broken smtp implementations or the repo just assuming you are the actual dev and giving no fucking instructions at all or the container shitting itself for no motherfucking reason at random times and you try to fix it and it goes well and then you wake up and it's restarted several times through the night...)
(eyes bulging, hyperventilating)
Kinda like the instant coffee my grandma uses. For some reason it has no nutritional information on it at all. Not even caffeine content.
WSL
Linux Mint
accurate. that's me.
Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.
Tails hhahaha
I use Ubuntu and drink instant, in both cases because I can't be bothered to expend more than minimum effort.
What about people who prefer tea?
BSD?
BSTea
Hannah Montana Linux
Mint
Nah. That's for those that like herbal tisanes lol
NodeOS
Toaru OS
Arch user and I don’t own a mug (it was bloat)
"I just get it straight from upstream" (Munches beans to build the coffee internally from source)
Slackware.
If you want to learn Ubuntu, download Ubuntu.
If you want to learn Arch, download Arch.
If you want to learn Linux, download Slackware.
And after you have learned Linux, download any distro that lets you work on your projects with the least hassle and get work done without fiddling around in every aspect of the OS. At least that's what I've observed among older users who see the OS as a tool and not a hobby in itself.
What about the machine that you fill with beans and water and coffee comes out? I have had this thing for 4 years now?
Expensive just for something like coffee: Mac
I got it used for 50€ from a lady who had like 7 parrots just roaming around her 1-room apartment.
Oh, that's just Margot. Don't mind her.
My last bean to cup machine cost 180€, my new one costs 600€. Most espresso machines cost more than that, some people pay 180€ for just the grinder alone
180? Those are rookie numbers
I'd say that is a Nescafé for Mac users
That's Ubuntu, no?
No, Ubuntu is coffee pods.
Ubuntu Pro?
Linux Mint maybe? Or Android?
As a Ubuntu user, I would never touch a kureig or whatever the hell it is. Those pod things are beyond stupid and you end up needing 2 for a normal sized coffee. Font forget the absurd cost for extra garbage.
Sounds like a great metaphor for Snaps, TBH.
That's because a normal cup has around 20g grounds, and a Keurig capsule has 10g. This isn't a joke. I actually weighed it.
Microplastics are my kink...
No joke, I've had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it's working great. It's probably going to last me ten years. There's barely any parts to break.
I'm impressed!
I'm in this picture and I like it!
Gentoo gang represent!
Where's the AeroPress fit in? CentOS maybe?
Alpine Linux
I don't drink coffee anymore that's means I shall commit the sin of install Windows again...
Hannah Montana OS
Red star OS
I like a Moka pot. Where do I fit?
Idk but I use NixOS.
I thought NixOS would be “grinds their own beans and brews them manually”
It would be, making coffee step 1: open cookbook to the coffee page.
I do grind my beans haha.
What about french press?
Have some directions on how to use it sitting next to the press and it could be NixOS.
I wonder if NixOS is a vacuum coffee maker for how confusing nix looks when you see it for the first time or instant coffee for how reproducible it is...
Nix is setting up a Rube Goldberg machine that brings you freshly made coffee straight to bed every morning: a lot of extra effort for the same cheap instant coffee.
A nixos evangelist friend of mine uses a bialetti :)
I enjoy the memes, but I'm embarrassed to admit I actually don't know what the difference between linux distros are.
The software philosophy of the maintainers and their choice of packages and design.
A simple but important difference: the package-manager: apt, dnf or pacman (there is more but let's bring it down to these three).
Another one is security: apparmor or selinux

Everyone can start their own distro. Manage some packages together, choose for example: Based on Arch, pacman, selinux and hyprland-wm and name it hypearch. Et voila!
I think you're courageous to admit it in spite of feeling embarrassed, and I admire that.
If we all ask and share without ego, the world gets just a little bit better. :)
Didn't miss.
Welp!
No Linux for me I guess.
lol I use that coffee machine and been using debian for years
Same. This picture is surprisingly accurate.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed user here...
I'm gonna claim "the coldbrew" for us, because it's always refreshing, chill, and in constant rotation. It might take a little longer to brew, but that's so it doesn't destabilize your entire system. Ahh...so smooth. :)
(I dunno if this analogy holds up but hey I'm taking a shot lol)
Help me choose a distro!
My coffee preparation method is:
I drink this one kind of instant coffee that does not even need me to heat the water, I can just mix it in cold water and be good with it. It's still coffee and I don't have to make the slightest effort.
That is I guess Windows:
Just joking tho, I run Fedora, even lazy people have standards.
Debian user here. Checks out.
Though I use Windows (and Debian WSL) as desktop daily. The fact that I mostly drink instant coffee is possibly related.
I think Windows === Instant Coffee is perfect here
3-in-1 instant coffee packets are installing a distro into WSL from the Microsoft Store
The LFS users are still busy growing their coffee plant
I grind my own and use a manual hand pumped espresso machine. Should I be using BSD?
How does a manual espresso machine work? Do you need to use a cheater bar/lift weights to use one?
Either a hand pump with mechanical advantage or a lever-based machine with a long enough bar to make it easy - at least those are the manuals that I'm familiar with
This is the one I have
https://www.wacaco.com/products/minipresso-gr
also @[email protected]
Ah I have the same one! I got it before I got a countertop machine so it doesn't get much use now that I have the gaggia classic
Microblaze
Apparently I am a Tumbleweed user in Fedora clothing.
M’lady.
I use Fedora and I don't understand this
I just want to pound my coffee and get to work. I finally gravitated to Fedora because it's clean and just works. Too much setup on my Arch and Gentoo installs with way too much breakage. It's fun to customize and tweak distros like those to an obsessive degree, until you actually need to get work done.
Ooh! It's a Silvia! It's backwards, but it's a Silvia.
I love my Silvia, but I use Pop!
Oh, and... https://feddit.nu/comment/11221082 ...I have and use an Aeropress.
Debian stable let's goooooo
Haha accurate, NixOS is missing.
I'm using a Cafelat Robot.
What about instant coffee? Arch user btw
Error. Does not compute. Instant coffee implies Microsoft Windows user. fzzt fzzt Bang
Windows XP is the last version of Windows i'll ever use. I actually have XP running on a Thinkpad T-420.
What about “gets my coffee from the free machine in the break room at work”?
Windows Subsystem for Linux
What about "gets my coffee from the free barista at work"?
Docker Desktop on macOS?
Vscode ssh remote on macOS
RHEL
Here it is for editors: https://bsd.network/@ed1conf/113486823218390932

Ubuntu used to be good (past tense). I got annoyed with constant manual compiling with Gentoo, but am considering going back to it anyway.
Declarative distros like nixos and guix just order from a barista or one of those office machines
I have the second one, it takes about 2 minutes to make a cup of espresso, most of the time unattended, I've had it for 15 years, and yeah, it took some time to learn how to use at first.
I also use Debian, not Gentoo...
I oscillate between void and debian. I use a french press. Idk what that says about me
It means you drink your coffee with your pinky out.
Why, though?
A french press is literally the easiest way to make coffee. There's hardly anything to fuck up and it's dirt cheap - like 10€ at Ikea.
Where do us qubes users fit in?
Four different machines pouring into four different cups.
I use Artix, but hate coffee altogether and would rather drink southern iced tea, what does that say?
Same here. I think we're Puppy Linux or XUbuntu maybe? I'm trying to pick a distro that's different, while also killing conversations among enthusiasts... Because all of my coffee enthusiast conversations inevitably die when I I mention tea.
Southern iced tea is Lindows. Does anyone remember Lindows? It's called Linspire now.
Fedora does look cool! It also has lots of customisability through theming and GNOME extensions.
I use Fedora with XFCE, what am I?
After you poured your coffee you put ice cubes in it.
Fedora KDE here.
KDE makes my laptop sound like it is going to take off
They got me!
Debian on my servers. Fedora on my laptop. Gentoo in my kitchen (yep that exact espresso machine). I'm all over the place.
What are we when we get too old to drink coffee anymore?
British
this is beautiful. I don't drink coffee, but "I don't need anything more" is my life ethos from everything to my IDE to the wooden backed kitchen chair I game on.
What does it say about me? I have a French press, and I don't even use it for coffee.
As an arch user, I need my water tap. That's it, because water is the best liquid ever.
What about Moccha?
Gentoo is factory assembly line
Мдэ... боюсь показывать то, как варю кофе в свете этой картинки. :)
I don't know how accurate it is but here's a translation:
@eccentric
Yep. I brew my coffee in a jezve or in a balancing siphon. :)
Cezve, possibly?
A cezve (Turkish: cezve, pronounced [dʒezˈve]; Serbo-Croatian: džezva / џезва; Arabic: جِذوَة), also ibriki/briki (Greek: μπρίκι), srjep (Armenian: սրճեփ) is a small long-handled pot with a pouring lip designed specifically to make Turkish coffee. It is traditionally made of brass or copper, occasionally also silver or gold. In more recent times cezveler are also made from stainless steel, aluminium, or ceramics.
@eccentric
Yes, of course.
That's just Slackware.
I have a fairly expensive espresso machine, but I only ever use that one button that makes simple black coffee. What does that say about me?
ChromeOS user.
I use drip and Chemex. And arch and macOs.
This is pretty accurate.
Orange Linux bad.
Orange for Linux:
LOL what about regular coffee without fancy equipment? I vote alpine.
I mean...the cartoon has basically all kinds of coffee prep excepting french press, aeropress and the various ways to make cold brew. Are you talking about instant coffee? Because that's definitely windows....
The most common coffee prep method around here is:
I know some people who use filters and one or two who have capsule machines. But not the machinery you mentioned.
Ah, the cowboy method. Gotcha.
And of course nixos user(doesnt exist)(btw i use nixos)
Gentoo and Fedora should be switched. Poor over people are always snobs demanding perfect grinds, perfect water temperature, and perfect pour overs. Espresso users are the same but I like espresso and fedora lol
Pour overs are very forgiving and will give a decent result if your new or just eyeballing measurements but also if you want it exactly like you like it you'll use a scale.
Fedora IMO is pretty forgiving and if I want my Fedora install exactly how I like, I'll follow the same steps as always when configuring and setting up.
Just like a pour over/chemex.
