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.

    Mint all the way.

    Look, I know that there will never be consensus with this topic, but I genuinely believe Mint has the potential to become posterboy for the Linux boom.

    It's not just about the path of least resistance (i.e., ease of use and learning with safety wheels), but it's also about setting the fundamentals strong and limiting them to maintainable manageable levels. Which I felt Mint walks the line pretty succinctly.

    There's a song called 'No More Fucks to Give', all time banger (you should listen to it if you haven't), it made me have a small realization that you have only a limited amount of Fucks you can give in life, and I feel like same should be a good soft rule any distro to adhere to.

    Having out of the box settings doesn't hurt though. If you set Mint correctly it's almost the same.

    Every bit of pain I've had since installing Ubuntu is to do with Snap.

    I can't even get Firefox to play videos smoothly.

    If there is one that runs SF6 I want that one.

    I use cachyos and aurora, if any Ubuntu user wants the laugh at me be my guest. πŸ˜€

    Ain't no one using Ubuntu on the right side. Would have been funnier with arch. Also missing the NixOS nerds in the middle.

    [–] OhVenus_Baby@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

    Nixos do be nice though. I'd consider LFS is for the true neckbeard nerd.

    [–] DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

    I actually wanted to run Ubuntu and then Fedora, but they both kept breaking out of nowhere. I don't know get why people have a more stable experience than I do with these, I don't even fucking tinker and fuck with shit.
