Seeing Windows on a Thinkpad feels weird. I better go back to Unixporn to feel better.

As an Arch + Hyprland Thinkpad user seeing a beautiful Thinkpad being ruined by Windows hurts. Free them from their Microsoft prison already.

I don’t even use windows anymore apart from my work laptop, where I can’t install stuff on my own anyway, but that still made me look up options for tiling window managers on windows rn. (Tiling windows managers amiright)

Maybe it’s my age, but I’ve only ever known IBMs as DOS and Windows machines.

Yeah I don’t expect there are many tech employees working with Windows Thinkpads.

I worked for one of the biggest tech companies in the UK, we used Thinkpads for our dev work. They’re solid machines with good specs and excellent warranties. Big companies love them.

I’ve worked for tech companies in SV and I’ve never seen a developer without a MacBook.

The X1 Carbon is one of the best developer laptops there is, but I would never tarnish one with Windows

It’s unethical to keep a ThinkPad in the conditions on display in the photo

All Thinkpads (even the lower quality and less upgradable newer ones) deserve a loving Linux Transfem :3

Who says it needs to be a transfem, there are cool linux nerds of the transmasc and enby variety as well.
