How peaceful is your /etc file listing?

Hello LES!

Here are three screenshots of /etc file listings, from my

  • Chromebook Debian Linux container,

  • FreeBSD VPS, and

  • Void Linux VPS.

Do you feel an emotional reaction to any of these /etc listings? In particular, does any one of the three /etc listings seem more peaceful and attractive than the others?

Please feel free to post a screenshot of your distro's /etc listing!

Thanks!

Tom

FreeBSD VPS

Void Linux VPS

I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    No opinion. It is what it is.

    I may be biased but FreeBSD looks the best, followed by Void which leaves Debian coming in third. Is that the right answer? Do I win a prize? :grin:

    Why emotional? Just a bunch of generic Linux config junk inside.

    My basement workstation:

    If you notice the timestamps on those files you might recognize that my only hope toward /etc is to spare myself a walk to the basement to crawl behind the bench and plug a monitor into a noisy machine that stopped responding to ssh.

    @Not_Oles Just saying as a friend, you might find more peacefulness for example by going fishing. Perhaps it would be time for you to take a day or two off instead of trying to deep deeper meaning in file listings.

    I am sorry to hear you use windows. I wish you good luck finding your way back to the Linux realm.

    Here you go, did some Multipass screenshots of Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04, and 24.04 before my server expires:

    /etc in Ubuntu 20.04
    /etc in Ubuntu 22.04
    /etc in Ubuntu 24.04

    /etc stands for Erase That Crap

    rm -rf the living shite out of that directory

    Here's one from Slackware 14.0, it's a VirtualBox VM from one of my workstations at home.

    Thanks @tmntwitw! Very relaxingly excellent. Good for meditation. Paging another Slackware fan, @AuroraZero!

    I imagined that the Yeti would enjoy seeing yet another Slackware /etc directory listing! Isn't Slackware kinda like 🍦 for a Yeti?
