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.

    When you don't use windows for a few months, you'll feel like that on first boot. 'Oh, you haven't used this program on your desktop in a while (lists entire desktop). You want me to clean it up into a folder, because you don't use it anyway? I would also like to attend you to some urgent updates you need to install right now, and after that I have updates for your updates waiting, like 3 increments in a row with reboots each.' And of course, during the chore of updating, Edge appears and becomes your default browser. Take that you dirty cheater!

    That just reminds me why I left in the first place. Bye!

    Edge appears and becomes your default browser.

    I have to use Edge at work and after a recent update it disabled the adblocking extension I used because "it might have been tampered with". It also offered a nice Repair button which...uninstalled the extension completely.

    Edge is hostile to its users and should never ever be used.

    It is not hostile it is abusively helpful! It will force you into the best experience of the web, just sit still you silly goose!
