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!

    You should try playing games on Linux with proton. It's gotten so good in the past 3 years that I have not wanted to play games on Windows since COVID.

    I have only seen games not work on Linux when it required a rootkit and I don't care to have that installed outside of a sandbox anyway.

    If there is still a place for windows, it's for games that require root kits and for the handful of specialized software that won't run on Linux.

    Even when a company forces me to use a windows laptop, I just install arch in wsl2 and do all my work there.
