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!

    Having Ubuntu with the big bucks instead of Red Hat is mental, given that Canonical made 12M on 250M revenue in 2023 while Red Hat made 434M on 3.4B in 2018. I'm citing these years because that's what's available in Wikipedia. Red Hat is probably more profitable today under IBM. Kinda goes to show the general unawareness of the Linux corporate landscape around here. :D

    I don't think red hat is even on the list, so the fact that they're making even bigger bucks doesn't really matter.
