There are four groups of people needed for any tech environment to strive, furries, femboys, Transfems, and Linux users (especially Arch btw users).

I think those are present in all previously stated categories.

I'm not personally a furry but I'm a genderfluid Transfem (so I guess I technically also hit the femboy box), autistic, and I use Arch btw

okay so the furries are all in on frontend while the Linux graybeards do the low level C shit. the femboys can't get enough Rust and are somewhere in the middle doing web backends and services, the transfems like Rust too, but also weirder things like Nix or functional programming and lean more towards OS and systems type of stuff right?

i like this because it explains why the furries seem to have more visibility than the other groups, it lets each group have a little bit of space while still all being part of the same team, and honestly it matches the people i've worked with like 80-90%.

...you somehow described me perfectly with the transfem part

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

Same. I feel utterly exposed

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I am none of the first 3, but I am totally an Linux Arch user BTW. Being a paranoid autist also helps.

Yet.

You like using window managers, don't you?

[–] bastion@feddit.nl 5 points 2 months ago

Filthy things. They kind of want to be used, don't they?

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I guess KWin since I use KDE Plasma.

I'm confused, you just repeated the same thing 4 times??

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I'm just an asshole.
