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!

    Welp, off to macOS now. Sorry guys I can't be a part of this community anymore.

    Too expensive for me. FreeBSD it is!

    Time to boot up the old windows 98 machine from the closet and start making my own modern app alternative.

    I’d rather go for Win95, now that dotnet9x is out there and I can run modern software: https://youtu.be/CTUMNtKQLl8?si=zM7L49Y4wuDL_XYN

    There's always BeOS.

    Remember BeOS and how it was going to be the future?

    Poor BeOS.

    (Yes, yes, Haiku. But who uses it?)

    [–] kspatlas@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

    I ran haiku on a laptop at one point, actually supported it really well

    [–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

    It's probably a good OS, but I doubt it will ever become the dominant new OS was hoped BeOS would become.
