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!

    Thanks for the list! You links doesn't work because they are all in a code block btw. I also love these tools:

    • zoxide: smart cd
    • atuin: shell history with synchronization and beautiful fuzzy search (but i unbinded it from the up arrow)
    • Tealdeer: fast and good looking tldr pages

    Nah, it's just that lemmy can't do markdown.

    edit: Oh. It does.

    Yeah maybe it's lemmy's fault, but removing the code block should fix it.
