Don't make a mistake in choosing a distro

For those who don't remember the original of this was an ancient meme:

Edit:

Just how old this meme is: OSX 10.9 mavericks was the first free mac update, it was released in 2013. The meme should be created before that. Iirc Windows 7 was the first win with forced and annoying updates, it was released in 2009. So this meme should be from that era, 11-15 years old.

Edit2:

I found the original post, my calculations were correct, this is from 2011: https://www.stickycomics.com/computer-update/

I thought I had a virus when I got a pop-up about Ubuntu pro. I thought all linux was free and there's no way I'd be getting ass for features I don't have

What are the distros that would align with these categories?

Cool, more free stuff:

Not again!

Ooh, only Ubuntu pro:

• Ubuntu

sudo pacman -Syu Cool, more free stuff! Fresh as a morning breeze.

Make all the mistakes you want to. There's a lesson under every leaf in this world.

(probably the most downvoted post i've made yet on lemmy 😂)

Ubuntu pro is free to enable btw
unless you're using ub server for commercial purposes, then you're breaking the agreement

You mean a free Ubuntu pro account for personal use?

$ nixos-rebuild switch --use-remote-sudo --flake ~/dotfiles#desktop

😎😎😎

I'm an annoyed fedora user and it seems every day there's an update that requires reboot to install. I want the latest patches to keep the system secure, but this is annoying, and I use 2 laptops.

What does Ubuntu Pro get you besides extended support after the normal OS EOL?

Fedora/Arch/Ubuntu

yay! :)

Im in the middle, 4 times a day 😂 what distro?

I've started to become 2) for some stupid reason.

I use btrfs snapshots to backup my system, and it has the side cost of needing a bit extra space. This is absolutely fine.

What is not fine however is free desktop/Nvidia flatpaks update. I get 10gb every week, and it keeps filling my disk with this stupid crap.

Not only that I am both a rust programmer and blender artist, and it's the trinity of non deduped disk space filler

Remember when this was a thing?
