Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    This shit probably put me off trying out Linux for years.

    Hopefully you've tried another distro by now, and also know to avoid big corporate distros best you can

    Been using Mint for a few years now.

    I was digging LMDE until my 8GB of ram simply couldn't handle the load and I'm in AntiX now. Honestly, I've watched Mint go from being immature and insecure to security leaders without losing their accessibility. Solid and incredibly important distro if you ask me

    Yeah, me too. I quit X the moment Musk took over.

    I quit, told him to go fuck himself, that we see who he really is and to delete my account after he started banning journalists who dared to criticize the "free speech absolutionist" dickhead.
