I thought it was sock size based on distro
Gentoonis even higher and LFS is at the top?
Debian btw
As a mint user I guess I’m lucky I’m into Victorian women.
I use both Fedora and Debian. I feel like mid kneecap is a weird height for a sock.
Gentoo level is a gimp suit
I feel like Ubuntu really deserves to get orange, as they use it all over their branding.
As for yellow…hmm. is Yellow Dog Linux still around?
searches
Nope. Ended in 2012.

Nothing with an especially yellow logo.
I guess that’s why Ubuntu got yellow.
what about stage 1 gentoo??? hrm??
you’re beyond socks at that point, you exclusively wear body stockings
Compression stockings. Do young people even remember that Gentoo exists?
Where slackware?
That means you are too old to wear stockings
Thigh high compression socks
owch…dont be like that.
Isn’t that just wearing pantyhose?
Mint users just be wearing… regular socks?
Meanwhile Linux from Scratch is just no-show socks
And I can’t decide if Mac OSX is flip-flops or crocs… (I mean, it is fully POSIX compliant, or at least was in the past…)
LFS is a ball of yarn and two needles. Knit your own goddamn A-length socks like a real man
That’s Ubuntu, mint is some sort of mini sock
Yup.
… where’s the box?
I lost it when my power went out and my chest freezer thawed…
Went from F to D and back to F… then straight to A!
I did use Debian for servers, but it’s not a daily driver so doesn’t count
I do like seeing NixOS as the terminally unix distro. 100% deserved. Arch doesn’t even compare to us
Gentoo is a pair of knitting needles and yarn.
CachyOS you just wax
Short socks linux mint
I get that it’s memes and all that, but are there a lot of programmer/linux-socks wearing folk? I honestly have no idea.
Also, considering how alive the meme is, it’s kinda weird that eg. arch’s support-store only sells like stickers and shirts, not a single sock :D
Until reading the comments, I thought this was skirt length.
