like for example,, one time i was browsing through some neofetch screenshots and i found out that a lot of them have anime or furry stuff as their wallpaper or profile picture,, but they use linux. hmm or maybe they even have proprietary videogame images!! i used to think that was bad but now i realize that even if you have proprietary stuff as images like,, furry fanart of some proprietary videogame, it's like just a picture, a jpeg. but still,, younger me would've freaked out by the idea of having proprietary files, but i still enjoy linux. what do you think?? please
Man, if you're freaking out over """proprietary wallpapers""" just wait until you see how many MacOS clones there are in r/unixporn lmao, chill.
my brain is so fucking cooked I can't tell if op is joking or just a teenager
umm,,i'm not joking or am a teenager, i'm 21, it's just that when i was 18 and stuff i was really into that, into linux. into free software, and my entire life was about that,, i still like gnu but i also like other stuff like the furry fandom!!
I wrote (not only, but some) more intelligent things on the Internet when I was a teenager.
What do I think? I think it's normal to have wallpapers that aren't related to the kernel of you OS and I'm struggling to make sense of how people setting their wallpaper to something they like could possibly be a problem.
I don't think that purity testing people is an attractive method of talking about free software? We should meet people where they are, and besides, if games are good, they're good. Doom started out as proprietary software and got GPL'd. It's also cool to think that reverse engineering software, like in the case of OpenMorrowwind, is a thing. Besides, I pirate proprietary software all the time with cracked DRM. The harm is in the restriction of user freedom, not necessarily in the existence of the laws if you view the laws as fake and don't adhere to them. Let's talk about cracking DRM and decompiling these games. Let's talk about modding them. Let's talk about making servers and playing them online together.
Minding wallpapers if they're not questionable or illegally obtained sounds like a symptom of a disorder to me. That's my answer.
We should probably execute them in Central Park via guillotine IMO.

What you're experiencing is sonder.
No bodies business but the user what wallpaper they like.
I use images from the UK canal inferstructure where I spend much of my time.
If you're willing to tell me to do otherwise. My response is going to be short and rude.
