Linux has helped me rediscover my love for computers. And the many small and larger hobby projects I can now embark on because of it do in fact help with my mental health.

[–] ThunderLegend@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 hours ago

Same for me..I'm a totally different person because I found Linux..If I had found it earlier maybe I would pursuit an IT career but I'm still glad to have a hobby that fulfill my hunger for knowledge and I have a lot of fun tinkering and playing with Linux

[–] justme@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 8 hours ago

Thank you good sir for the genuine laugh

[–] BonerMan@ani.social 30 points 11 hours ago

It would help though

I used to be all fucked up on drugs, now I am all fucked up on Linux.

Hooked on Linux worked for me!

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Haven't got time to do drugs now that I'm using Arch.

It's useful if your mental health issues are caused by Microsoft. For example, if I ever have to go through another license audit, I may have a psychotic break.

[–] ConsistentAlgae@reddthat.com 5 points 5 hours ago

You put it out in the universe. You’re doomed to go through another one!

(I’ve been in IT for 10 years, I don’t wish this on my worst enemy, sorry for your luck.)

shocking: users of open-source reddit alternative like open-source things

There's a fine line between liking something, and obsessing over it to the point you're evangelizing strangers against their wishes.

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 4 points 5 hours ago

evangelizing? Evangelizing!? EVANGELIZING!?!?!?!

Yeah that's fair, carry on.:-)

[–] bluewing@lemm.ee 3 points 6 hours ago

Every church needs their evangelists and missionaries. And the Church of Tux is no different or better than the churches that have gone before.

It's a people thing.

[–] Shapillon@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Yeah but what if your option is objectively better even if not anyone has your exact usage?

refrains real hard from proselytizing

I increased my antidepressants due to ArchLinux

ngl it sounds like a distro

[–] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 17 points 12 hours ago

I once had trouble with my arches.....

They recommended Debian.

You know how people always tell depressed people to exercise because it actually works in a lot of cases?

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 hours ago

Man, does it ever work. Running changed my life!

[–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 4 hours ago

perhaps, "we told 100 depressed people to excercise, 50 of them did, and the depressed people who excercised had way better mental health!"

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 192 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (19 children)

Yes! then you can have other mental health problems to distract from your existing ones.

For best results, try Gentoo.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Frustration is not a mental problem, it's a perfectly normal response

Yes, or Lenny users just in general

Edit: I’m not fixing it

[–] lemmyng@lemmy.ca 99 points 18 hours ago (6 children)

Can't focus on mental problems if you're too busy reinstalling arch.

If based on reality, I'm sorry to hear it and how it gets better soon. As a Linux user for over a decade, this is extremely funny.

Now, have you heard of Plan9 from Bell Labs?... /s
