Slackware
As simple as Arch, but more stable.
The design is almost 100 years old and doesn't need daily filter updates.

But also it burns the coffee

[–] [email protected] 52 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Only when you use it wrong.

[–] [email protected] 52 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That sounds an awful lot like the blaming the user. Maybe it really is the slackware of coffee.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 5 days ago

It's easy to blame the user when they don't bother to read the manual or follow basic instructions.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

So it burns the coffee.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 days ago (3 children)

It does not. A regular percolator does, as it circulates the coffee back into the boiling water, unlike a moka pot, where the finished coffee does not sit at the bottom close to the heat, but in the top compartment. You should take it off the stove as soon as it’s done to avoid getting the finished coffee back to a boil or overextracting the coffee but if you do it right, they make really good coffee. There are even some versions that feature a valve, so the coffee is cooked at a higher pressure, getting it a little closer to espresso and producing a nice –albeit short lived – crema.

Tbh confused how you even managed to burn the coffe with this, as it is just evaporating water that filters through the coffee above - like did you put the coffee in the bottom part? 🤔

I use this:

Except my stove top is electric.

I use LinuxMint by the way.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

That's just pretentious, man. You do that for the musafir but there's no way you use that impossible to clean cezve on a daily basis.

Here, use this:

A teaspoon for every little cup of water. Heat it fast until it simmers, stir like crazy for two minutes, pour, then let it froth slightly, then pour again.

I use Arch and Debian depending on what I think is easiest.

As a fan of Arabic Coffee openSUSE would be the closest equivalent. It can be simple or sports car depending on sourcing and hardware.

Mint is more like instant coffee. Fast, easy, with little hardware required, and comes in a variety of prepackaged flavors.

So what's a cup of instant equivalent? Don't tell me it's Windows.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 6 days ago

ChromeOS? lol

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Mac os. Windows wouldn't be coffee at all

[–] [email protected] 56 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Nah, the macOS equivalent would be going to starbucks

Linux Mint (Moccamaster) it just chugs along and makes the best coffee possible. Fast and reliable.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 5 days ago (4 children)

$400 for a drip machine?

Must be a Mac user.

I think in this graphic I would replace the Fedora pour-over thing with a French Press because they already did pour-over with Arch.

And then Android is a Starbucks cup.

Fedora would be a French Press.

Reliable, consistent, hard to screw up, broad information online on how to use one.

I prepare my coffee in a cup, and drink it with grounds. No milk, no sugar.

I am an embedded developer.

Sometimes when I'm too lazy to boil water, I leave coffee grounds with cold water in a cup overnight, the coffee is strong enough in the morning, and no need to wait for it to cool.

I normally enjoy engaging with this type of blatant stereotyping....but this? Treating Gentoo like it's a real thing people use irl?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (3 children)

NixOS would be like brewing coffee with laboratory equipment and then setting it up for automation.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Well, dammit, now I gotta go try NixOS. Gee, thanks for sending me down the rabbit hole, like I have time for yet another one!

Excuse me but I'm a Debian user and I'm not using the same system since 10 years.

More like 30 years.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Debian is the Bunn of the Linux world. There forever and constantly working.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago

Me, a Slackware user: eating raw coffee beans by themselves

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 days ago

Very happy to see myself correctly represented. I use a single cup pourover, BTW

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

You know what, this is really accurate. I won't touch Ubuntu or a pod machine. I will use an old percolator, if necessary, but it's not something I would ever pick over other options. I also bounce between other distros just as often as I bounce between coffee brewing methods!

I wonder where openSUSE falls on this paradigm? Moka pot, maybe?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Hey, I'm no Ubuntu user! ... I'm a linux mint user. /j

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

I use Nixos. And I trink tea.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I drink instant coffee. Black.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago

My wife is an arch user........... Oh no.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

I like hot chocolate and use Ubuntu 😋

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

I use Fedora and sometimes Debian (Debian is love! 🌀❤️), and brew my coffee in a moka pot.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I use a french press and endeavouros. don't know what that says...
