Your distro + DE walk into a party. What are they doing?

Let’s have fun with this one.

Name your distro and desktop environment (or window manager), then describe what they’d be doing at a party together. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I’ll go first: Kali + XFCE.

Kali is that misunderstood guy standing in the corner that nobody will approach because he’s been badly stereotyped. When, in reality he just wants to help you check if your Wi-Fi is secure, better troubleshoot network issues, lock down your system and solve client frontend app bugs and vulnerabilities. But nobody is going to find that out because they won’t go near him.

Meanwhile, XFCE, she shows up in the same outfit she’s been wearing since 2018, perfectly comfortable, refusing to follow trends, and ready to outlast everyone at the party because she’s pacing herself.

Your turn. What are your distro and DE doing at the party? lol

My distro is ofcourse one of the dudes that’s going for the dancefloor and the girls while my DE is chilling with the people in the kitchen (always at the kitchen at parties)

Ubuntu and Mate look for me to have fun together.

I’ll go with Debian (Stable) + Openbox.

Debian is the host who actually owns the house. He’s sitting in a high-backed armchair by the fireplace, sipping a glass of water, and wearing a sweater he’s owned for fifteen years. He isn’t the loudest person in the room, but everyone knows the party literally couldn’t happen without him.

Openbox is his minimalist friend who showed up with nothing but a pocket knife and a single matches box. She’s currently in the kitchen, stripping the wallpaper because she decided the room had “too much clutter.”

Together, they are the last two people in the house when the sun comes up, perfectly silent, while the “flashier” guests are all currently upstairs crashing because their glittery outfits caught fire.

antiX and IceWM: neither of them are understood at the party, so they leave and remain anti party goers.
