- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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!

I would straight up refuse job if it forced me to use Windows, however I mostly do server/cloud/dev so it just makes sense.
Considering I have no income right and I've been rejected from ~150 jobs, I need to take what I can get.
Whaaaat? You filthy windows lover.
But seriously though, some people talk here like if folks have a choice.
Do you know how truly privileged you are to be able to consider not taking a source of income for something like that? Lol
Yeah as an engineer in factories I’d be shocked if someone let me use linux
That's literally been the types of jobs I've been applying for, and they always want me to be an instant expert in their proprietary SCADA/DCS/PLC software even for "fresh graduate" positions. Not using proprietary software is tantamount to not working in manufacturing engineering.
