Emacs is an OS!

I run Emacs inside WSL. Where am I?

(WSL + Emacs) / 2 = Debian

How did you guess? I did pick Debian for WSL distro.

Hmm. Where should NixOS go?

Between Gentoo and LFS. It's less work than Gentoo, but it's much more poorly documented, so it's harder

Freebsd ?

Just an approximation. There are higher-ordered terms.

Freebsd would be just before Arch, the kernel is binary, you do have to set up the xorg, but after that, it's a simple case of dropping in Emacs, the right package and you have FreeBSD with Exwm!!

\^ Prot before he cut his hair/beard.

just an application of the OS/2 operator

This doesn’t match my experience. Arch is mostly used by children unable to grow a proper beard. Debian leads in the average beard length department.

You have angered my beard with your words.

Just install xorg, twm installs with it. Call emacs directly from twm. This is pure happiness.

I feel like there are more steamOS users than wsl users now as well

That chart is intended to help people choose a platform based on a simple heuristic. If you are already set, it’s of no use to you. You should seek help though, self-harm isn’t healthy.

Not needed, Exwm is emacs AS the window manager! :)

Any example of bad docs?

it is just a sockOS probably 🤣😂🤣

And using Nix-managed emacs to write Haskell professionally... asking for a friend 🥸

Gentoo sure is a good match for Emacs. Keeps the computer compiling while the user is configuring, so everyone is happy. 😊
