          New KDE user here. I don’t know what I’m doing and I also don’t get the joke.

            Microsoft did basically make Win11 the “Let’s take a bunch of ideas that IDE users have been able to do for 10 years” release. But I’m not sure where MS 365 came from that. There’s a grabbag of other features in that realm to choose from.

      Well, maybe I’m just not good at memes (almost certainly the case tbh) but Microsoft are talking about windows switching to being a largely cloud based OS, hence their Windows 365 talk recently.

      Which is horrible, obviously.

      Laughs in KDE could have been any distro, more about not having to deal with the eventual clusterfuck that’s coming towards windows users…

      There it is folks, someone had to explain their fucking meme. See that, that’s what a shit meme looks like. :p

        Better luck next time.

        Maybe like, “Laughs in FOSS”

        Or like, “Microsoft 365 Cloud OS”

        "now every day is a forced update,

        all the time,

        forever*"

        *except one day per leap year.

          Yep. Laughs in FOSS would have worked way better than mine.

          Thanks for the other pointers too, although I really didn’t need the mental image of windows update happening 60 times a second, thank you very much. :)

            The “coined the term” thing is what threw me off. I thought this was making fun of the name, like KDE already had some “365” branded product or something. But reading the comments, I take its intention as more making fun of the concept of a cloud-based desktop.

              Pretty much. Made perfect sense in my head at the time.

              I totally see how it would be ambiguous now though.

    With Windows 11 apparently just flat out stealing good stuff from KDE, may as well just use KDE instead. Cinnamon is my #1 desktop UI, but KDE is my #2. Keeps getting better too, based on what I see on KDE Neon.
