What it means

A terminal shows a user trying to install wget, Chromium, and nano, but a cowsay-style cow rejects each choice and recommends curl, Firefox, and vim or emacs instead. The joke is that the cow acts like an opinionated Linux expert, turning ordinary package installation into a stubborn software preference debate. It is used as a reaction to mocking someone’s tool choices or insisting on better alternatives.
