Sister communities:


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!

    constant annoyance of people complaining about a free product

    Yes, this is the attitude right here. This is the one that people complain about. People are not "complaining", people are reporting issues. And it's not free software if it's being gatekept by entitled assholes

    You're being defensive about that but I don't know that you did that and didn't say you did. You understand that all support receives irrational and angry requests right? It must be hard to deal with, especially if people are being demanding. This is not to say you were doing that but it is to say I understand the mindset of people enduring that. "Oh this guy told us we broke his system, yeah don't worry about that one."
