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!

    Ubuntu is fine and I actually am on Ubuntu after using Arch for many years

    22.04 LTS gang

    Honestly, it’s kinda my default general purpose linux distro at this point. Set it up bare bones and headless, rip out snap, and do what you want.

    Isn't Arch a lot of manual compilation? Like I do that shit for work, I don't want to do it in my free-time too.

    I use Ubuntu. I think it's funny how Arch users immediately assume they know more about Linux than me because of my distro choice. My hobby is learning about Linux and I can do that perfectly from my Ubuntu machine.

    I've used Arch in the past, and let me tell you, nothing crazy is going on in there.

    Yes, Ubuntu sucks because they are forcing Snaps on people while snaps are slow as hell. Thankfully they haven't fully shoved snaps down our throats. If they don't make snaps faster before shoving them down my throat, I'll just distro hop. Probably to Debian. I love Debian.

    Arch users HAVE to know a lot because their updates break it conatantly

    Arch user here. I have no idea what I'm doing. Killing Floor just crashed my graphics card or something to crash and my monitors aren't working after reboots. Oh god

    I’ll never understand the Linux community in that aspect. We want the market share to grow but always clown on the Ubuntu users, who make up the majority of our market share. If you use Ubuntu, you’re already far ahead than OSX/Win users who complain Apple/Microsoft did a change they don’t like but still remain hostage in their ecosystem.

    "Steam Deck now leave me alone"

    (cue DING sound and image of Arch installer)

    AAAH!

    (cue another DING sound with "Akira" echoing and an image of GNOME 3 desktop)

    AAAAAAAAH!

    of course the true and only "hannah montana linux"

    It's crazy that out of so many replies not even one was LFS.

    [–] foofiepie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    It’s, er, a variant of FreeBSD.

    [–] foofiepie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

    Erm. Maybe. Don’t ban me.

    [–] ricdeh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    So what is your distro? ;)

    [–] rustydrd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

    Some weather we're having, eh?

    [–] Ascend910@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

    I use Windows BTW

    [–] Ilflish@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

    Sometimes you just need an undebatable excuse. I use Linux Mint because LM are my initials and I'm too lazy to move to any other recommendations

    [–] astronaut_sloth@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

    This used to be me while I distrohopped. Now, I've settled on which distro I will use. I use Arch, btw.

    [–] donut4ever@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

    What's a distro? I just use the Linux kernel on a potato 🥔

    [–] proflovski@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

    Hannah Montana Linux of course. Disney uses on their disney plus servers

    [–] loz@aussie.zone 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Since developing early onset dementia, I've had to switch to mint.
