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 users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Bold of you to assume you still get a desktop in between all the ads.

    [–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 41 points 11 months ago

    It should be off in a corner or something. Not front and center where it's blocking the main ad.

    [–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 28 points 11 months ago (2 children)

    Yeah, those ads are way to easy to ignore. Hopefully the working space randomly shifts tiles so your attention shifts periodically to the ads!

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

    And you get jingles every few minutes that you can't turn down or mute.

    [–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Makes you sing and dance jingle into webcam.

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    If you don't sing enthusiastically enough, your files are deleted.

    [–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

    Bruh… don’t give them ideas

    [–] MumboJumbo@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Not only does it move, but it gets covered by an ad and it has to track your eyeballs on that tile for 5 seconds before it reveals the desktop. That way, you spend a minute watching ads looking for the real desktop.

    You a m$ employee??

    [–] Ophioparma@feddit.org 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Yeah, as if the desktop was the product

    [–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    If you use Windows, you are the product.

    [–] slax@hometech.social 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    @Diplomjodler3 @Ophioparma finished building my PC proceeded with installing Windows 11. Realized my failure. Installed PopOS. Life is so much better now.
