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!

    Hahaha Windows users having sense

    have no idea how to install another OS

    [–] Rolder@reddthat.com 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

    Why would I go through all that effort when there’s no real reason to

    [–] boredsquirrel 2 points 3 hours ago

    Lol

    Denial at its finest

    [–] 000999@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

    I use windows on my PC, mint on my laptop and lineageOS on my phone. Installing linux on a gaming PC feels pointless to me

    [–] boredsquirrel 0 points 3 hours ago

    Well then you probably dont know enough :)

    [–] Californian_hotel@sh.itjust.works 6 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    I can, I just prefer windows

    The only Unix system I ever willingly install is android, even though it's harder to install than Linux

    [–] boredsquirrel 2 points 13 hours ago

    Android is Linux, simply not the traditional userspace :)

    Linux Distros have a huge variety. What have you tried?

    [–] kboy101222@sh.itjust.works 10 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

    I'll have you know I know exactly how to install Linux and simply choose not to!

    (I ran Ubuntu for 3 years)

    [–] DrDystopia@lemy.lol 8 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

    I know how to quit smoking weed erry day, I simply choose not to.

    [–] kboy101222@sh.itjust.works 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

    Damn, just call me out dude

    [–] DrDystopia@lemy.lol 10 points 14 hours ago

    It's all in good fun

    [–] boredsquirrel 0 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

    Well Ubuntu is shit XD

    Try KDE.

    [–] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

    KDE is available for Ubuntu. There's even an edition that ships with KDE (Kubuntu).

    [–] boredsquirrel 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

    Yup and since like 2 weeks that version doesnt suck anymore.

    Before that, it did.

    And there are more issues with Ubuntu than just their atrociously themed GNOME. Bad updater, not shipping GNOME Software (ootb), no flatpak support (ootb), simply following outdated paradigms

    [–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

    Don't forget snaps! Fuck snaps and snapd. Furthermore, fuck automatically installing the snap when I try to install software through apt.

    [–] boredsquirrel 1 points 3 hours ago

    Yeah but snaps are just a technology. Yes they suck, but forcing non-system apps makes sense if you want stability.
