@magnusmanske@wikis.world Can we start calling the act of leaving Windows for Linux "defenestration" please? NO, why, DEFENESTRATION definition: the act of throwing a person or thing out of a window That has nothing at all in common with the act of moving to Linux.

@magnusmanske@wikis.world and if you return back to windows that makes you a defenestraitor

@KormaChameleon@tech.lgbt 2026-02-07 20:09
@magnusmanske@wikis.world that would be grammatically incorrect. In defenestration the windows stay where they are, and you move. Usually downwards at terminal velocity

@magnusmanske@wikis.world so posting Linux desktop screenshots on Fridays would be tagged #DeFensterFriday ?

@magnusmanske@wikis.world Defenefenestration? (If that means yeeting windows out the window?)

@andrewrock@bne.social 2026-02-08 09:01
@magnusmanske@wikis.world @chrismarquardt@chaos.social Doesn't really work. At the end of defenestration you still have the window.

@magnusmanske@wikis.world @DerSash@sueden.social Good idea, perfectly making sense of Linux not having reliable windows management.
