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.

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    Linux has faults with the UX

    My brother, you don't realize how critical that is. UX is all that matters for us regular people when it comes to computers and operating systems. Even after Windows 11's moronic redesign people still find Linux UX to be relatively inferior, which speaks a lot about the absolute state of it.

    I do realize the importance of the UX, which is why I listed some of the mountain of problems with Windows' UX that make it an inferior one to Linux. As I noted, the reason people tend to find Linux's inferior is that they're simply nose blind to the landfill of Windows UX problems that would be a dealbreaker if they were on Linux but not Windows. (That, or they literally never use Linux and just assume it's inferior because of memes that say it is.)

    The reason I pointed out that Linux has faults with the UX is to say that it's not some perfect wonderland with zero problems, but it's a huge improvement over Windows.
