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
sudoin 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.

Ahh, makes sense, but is it really wrong? To me it's just a different kind of joke
You could use the iq meme template to make fun of people who complain about the iq meme template not being used correctly.

I mean… Ubuntu is kinda-sorta just Debian with extra steps.
Right, I think there's another bell curve meme to be made here
The way memes work, yes it is wrong. Memes have a core structure or theme that variations are made around. Changing that core only really works if making a new meme or if making intentional commentary on the original meme itself. In this case by having nothing more than their preferred ranking of distros the creator has actually made themselves the target that the original meme would be making fun of.
