    To make it accurate. The final picture of Linux should have been a Frankenstein of a self-build car. Functional, but not aesthetically pleasing. And missing all the features you didn’t add yourself.

      Last time I installed arch or Gentoo it reminded me of a race car I drove with a friend. It rattles, it pops, it makes some strange noises but damn is it fast.

      And only pretty on the outside lol.

        What was it the Ferrari guy said? I don’t care about door gaps, when a Ferarri owner hits the gas I want him to shit his pants. Well if that ain’t Linux.

      What? Gnome is a beautiful DE that works flawlessly. It’s like being on a Mac that you can customize, have full control over, with window tiling out of the box, and saner keyboard shortcuts.

      I mean, it’s basically a classic Jeep or maybe Japanese make car. Everything built to take apart and put back together.
