Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html

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.

when i want to aid development with writing down my hardware, i should be able to send them, not they should collect it from me.

Most distros let you either opt-in or opt-out of it though. It's really not as big of a deal as people make it out to be. Besides, the "general" population switching to Linux doesn't really care about anonymized telemetry.

Discouraging people to not use a certain distro due to its optional and anonymized telemetry, is foolish.

idk but i'd switch to linux for absolutely zero telemetry, or as little as physically possible, while still maintaining a good gaming experience. That's the reason i'm planning to buy an amd build, not nvidia, i don't want propertiary drivers even
