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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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 remove France.

    Oh god, I reinstalled debian a bunch of times friday/saturday.

    I ended up on gnome twice, once because I didn't unmark anything properly, and a second time just to see what the unspecified debian UI would look like.

    I disliked/managed to use it before. Now it's so fucking macified it makes me want to vomit.

    You know you don't have to reinstall the OS just to change desktop environment, right?

    Gnome, kde, and what’s the 3rd logo? I suddenly have fomo.

    I've been using Cinnamon for a long time and I didn't know the icon. TIL

    Cinnamon >>> KDE

    Imo.

    KDE too clunky while cinnamon still customizable.

    downvoted for literally having a harmless opinion, classic lemmy

    People just misunderstand what the voting is for.

    I think there should be four options for voting: agree / disagree / is relevant / is irrelevant, where the first three pushes the entry up, and the last push it down.

    I think there should be no voting at all and we went back to how it was on forums :)

    [–] ranzispa@mander.xyz 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Do votes affect conversation at all in here? I just tend to ignore them.

    [–] Chais@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

    Comments with a negative sum will be hidden/collapsed. That may be a client setting, though.

    I just started to use Hyprland yesterday after switching to Cachy OS. Was previously Linux Mint cinnamon. I don't know why but I'm kind of enjoying the thrill.
