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!

    Fedora Silverblue enters the chat :) Haven't had a single hiccup so far. Only ublue spins are a pain in the butt imo. That's why I configure everything by myself.

    But I need to try NixOs soon

    i haven't done that since i installed void linux. for some reason it just always "feels clean" to me

    I did this with windows. Not so much macos until later versions started ballooning in size and being optimized for SSDs.

    I reinstall on an estimated average of about monthly, distro hopping skewed that, it so should be around a bit less than bimonthly.

    I thought we ditched Windows because we were tired of doing that?

    I didn't, I just liked Linux more. It allows us to play around more, but also fuck up more....

    Clean install is more than feel safe. It is safe as it is a fresh start and will eliminate anything you missed that is not desirable.

    I've been running the same installation since 2012.

    obligatory: "arch, btw"
