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.

    This very close to how I act towards my dad whenever he complains about his Windows 11 updates and performance.

    [–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 3 points 2 hours ago

    I put my dad on Mint years ago. No more complaints!

    Satire is someone making annoyingly good points, annoyingly? Ok

    [–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 hour ago

    This is meant to be a caricature of a Linux evangelist, not a 100% accurate portrayal of a Linux evangelist

    it's good satire because there are valid points thrown in, but also some completely irrelevant ones

    I feel personally attacked for some reasons

    This is what I want to be if only I don't have social anxiety.

    *heavy breathing on the bus* β€œ~Linus~ ~Torvalds~”

    β€œWhat?”

    β€œActually it’s β€œwho.” So way back when..”

    This is too close to reality to be satire

    [–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

    Welcome to the whole comedy of this guy. You cry, you feel it and it hurts.

    [–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 29 points 7 hours ago

    The line between reality and satire is often thin.

    But not quite as thin as the system requirements needed to run Linux /s

    It's so perfect. Like a nerdier version of the guy who ties women to train tracks.

    [–] dingleberrylover@lemmy.world 12 points 7 hours ago

    I love his videos. They are so accurate.

    [–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 12 points 8 hours ago
