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.

What are windows mainers doing in a linux community? Shoo, we don't want Edge or Bing or popup ads in our games.

Ehh, I'm not sure. In my experience, apple users are too tech illiterate to have any opinions on windows, not even incorrect ones.

I got haggled for being a macos user in college because, "pc was superior". Turns out, that the CompSci people that gave me shit about my Mac, didn't understand the difference between "PC" and "Windows'. My MacBook is still the best laptop I've ever owned. It literally survived having beer being pulled into it's fan, and it's battery turned into a balloon long ago... it still runs fine, almost a decade later (if I keep it plugged in). I was "tech illiterate" to people because I used a MacBook. But switching from windows to mac, got me comfortable with trying linux. It got me comfortable with being uncomfortable, because I was constantly trying to figure out how to "get this to work on macos"

I've met a lot of tech-illiterate people over the years... and they all gave me less shit about trying something different.

I don't use arch btw
