I though of:
Your hardware deserves better.
Also you can give some more realistic ones like my friend:
It just (not) works
- ‘You can keep your old hardware, we won’t force you to upgrade.’
- ‘Your old GPU, yes, even your R9 Fury, still has a home here, don’t worry, we won’t leave you out in the cold unlike our competition.’
…Among other jabs at Windows in the spirit of the old Mac vs. PC ads, or to be more apt, in the spirit of Sega’s old ads picking on Nintendo in the '90s.
Also…
- ‘Linux does! What Windon’t.’
Fun facts:
- The backend of Microsoft’s biggest money maker Azure runs on Linux: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/microsoft-showcases-the-azure-cloud-switch-acs/
- The most-used OS inside Azure is Linux: https://thenewstack.io/microsoft-linux-is-the-top-operating-system-on-azure-today/
- Microsoft is the second biggest contributor to open source software: https://opensourceindex.io/
- Microsoft has published their own Linux distro: https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux
- Microsoft has published a support page on how to install Linux: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install
In the server world, yes. The desktop is the place that needs to be won over.
The desktop is dying.
I think the desktop is evolving, and may one day become effectively irrelevant, But there is still a long way to go before local compute goes away, which means a local OS is still needed.
WSL is sufficient for many Windows users and developers without privacy concerns motivating them to switch to a full Linux distro.
Okay I will switch, please leave us in peace penguinlord
Live, Laugh, Linux
Fiddle, Tweak, Reinstall.
It’s pretty difficult to have a slogan when the price tag is reason enough to download it
Yeah but I’m thinking of some slogan like brand. For example once KDE had that Microsoft later copied
simple by default, powerful when needed
“Capitalism kills”
It is in fact GNU/Linux.
What if I use Alpine?
Dont
Then its Busybox/Linux
Hurts So Good
*Hurds
Its not windows
And when you tell your OS to poweroff it… powers off. Wow.
it’s like magic or somethin’.
And when you tell it to suspend or hibernate, it also powers off.
Or it is still turned on cause it failed.
Amazing!
I’d copy you and drop the hardware. Just: you deserve better
Good one from back in the day (not mine): “In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?”
But it has a direct reference to it’s competitors which won’t be viable in 100 years when windows shuts down
“I didn’t want to play that game anyway.”
More like use Adobe or Microsoft as I’m proud gamer since 2 years on Linux https://bazzite.gg/
I was saying that too. Now I’m evolved and say: “I didn’t want to
pay
that game anyway.”Help this is real
For me that game was Rust and it was more ‘Maybe for the best if I don’t touch that game again’
What happened? Rust used to have a native Linux client a few years back (i.e. last time I tried it).
“For slogan, please refer to the according man page”
more seriously maybe “Software it your own way”
I recently passed Linux Foundation System Admin and they had a weird Debian that just slapped me with
man not found
or something like thisI like it, but I think proprietary can tell it too.
So, RTFM?
Yes but more polite
PRTFM
Jokingly: “Linux is free if your time is worthless”
Though this tongue-in-cheek tagline takes the “free as in free beer” misinterpretation of the term “free software”, I’ve always found it chuckleworthy.
This hurts in my first Gentoo installation. Sharp, precise, and accurate pain.
lol I was going to suggest “it just works”
I would not have suggested that before this year but it’s definitely true now, or at least truer than for Windows/Apple.
