alright now we're gonna have quite a big discussion as to what "x server" means. x11? twitter?

"guys x servers are down!"
"have you checked your .xinitrc? did you start x?"
"whats an x innit racecar? the x servers are down!"
"how do you use x without knowing what an .xinitrc is... oh"

Reddit rebranding to "Y" because that's what we say when they do changes.

I mean, Debian setup setting up .xinitrc for me on my computer has made me not need to know what it is. I think I should.
