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.

    A few months ago I finished building my system and commented that I'd installed Mint and had been enjoying it for a week. Some guy felt that he needed to suggest a different distro to me (and actually got some upvotes from people agreeing with it).

    I had JUST switched from Windows to Linux and had only been running for a week! CAN I RUN WITH ONE DISTRO FOR ONE FUCKING WEEK WITHOUT HOPPING ALL OVER THE DISTRO-SPHERE?! Holy shit. Just let me enjoy my system for 7 days without telling me I should change again.

    I was shocked someone could be so obnoxious.

    I switched to linux 3 years ago. And started and stayed with pop_os. Why? Because Anthony at the time from Linus tech tips recommend it to me. Am I gonna switch? No. I use Nvidia btw.
