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!

    Thank you Windows for making your latest version so shitty that I feel comfortable running Linux on all my hardware.

    If the latest version is this shitty then I only expect the previous one to be enshittified up to the point of support drop.

    Linux FTW!

    All they had to do was to allow me to move the taskbar to the side and I'm only partially joking.

    I'd say all they had to do is remove mandatory Microsoft accounts but the road windows is going down just makes me think it was just a matter of time.

    I'm actually excited at how great Linux gaming has become. I might keep my Win10 install around solely for VR games MAYBE. (I have a WMR headset. Womp womp...)

    But I'm not worried at all, for when they "drop support" and I can just continue on doing all the important stuff on Linux with hardly a passing thought. Thanks for the extra disk space, Microsoft!
