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 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.

    Mfw I switch from windows to Ubuntu and I start seeing bad stuff about it

    It is indeed a good distro and one of the main distros that brings innovation to the Linux world. If it works for you, then keep using it.

    It's sad because it's a genuinely good distro. Linux wouldn't be anywhere without it yet all I hear is people parroting the same misinformation they heard.

    Linux wouldn’t be anywhere without is an incredibly shortsighted statement given that redhat has been the defacto standard in the enterprise and for (US) govt purposes

    I should've worded that better then. Linux wouldn't be anywhere when it comes to consumer devices like laptops and desktops. It's possible that without Canonical someone else would've made a just works distro for regular people, but they were the first. As far as I know that is. I haven't used Linux around 2004.
