The Git Repo for r/placetux on r/place
We aim to plan out and draw Tux and a few Distro/DE logos in the Reddit r/place event.
Ideally we would take up the entire 1000x1000 canvas for ourselves, but that would make other communities sad... And it's also impossible. We would create 3 progressively larger pixel arts (a 50x50, a 75x75 and a 100x100 version) for Tux and Distro/DE. We would draw the appropriate one in r/place, based on territory gained.
- You can see every line of code it uses, so you can be sure there is no backdoor or keylogger. (The NSA tried 3 times to get a backdoor into linux, but failed)
-
It is very fast and lightweight.
-
It cost exactly 0$
-
EVERY SINGLE ASPECT OF LINUX can be modified to however you want, and is only limited by hardware.
-
It can look real sexy (take a look at r/unixporn).
-
You don't have a giant, monoply, money-seeking company forcing you to do what it tells you to do, making you the product (I'm looking at you Microsoft and Apple...)
-
Many, many options to choose from, to customize it.
-
You get to brag about how smart you are when a Windoze user sees you "hAcKIng" (I use arch btw).
-
The command line is really good and lets you do very big things in one line, while user-friendly interfaces work well for those that don't want to use commands.
-
Package managers make installing software a breeze.
-
It's almost impossible to get a virus on it, and there are still antiviruses for it.
-
TONS of support for Linux, ask a question, and in a few minutes people will be responding.
-
Countless other reasons.
