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!

    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.

    Windows user:

    *Complaining about ads on their desktop

    Me, a linux enjoyer:

    *inhales*

    Linux user complaining about having to add repositories manually in order to get a piece of software to update or to add a tool they need.

    Me as an any operating system user. Both have draw backs that aren't for normal people.

    Adding repos is a one time thing that takes like 10 minutes tbf. And even then there are gui tools for that funny enough.

    Ten minutes? What are you doing for the other eight? Basking in the warmth of a job well done?

    I use EndeavorOS which draws from Arch repositories including AUR. I've never once had to manually add a repository.

    Not knocking you but there is also a reason the "I use Arch memes" exist.

    Cool. Don't care.... Just pointing out that the person is wrong.

    Because we want everyone to know how SUPERIOR arch (and derivates distro) is so they can get in the fun? 😁 /j

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Don't arch users also hate the derivatives?

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

    Most Arch users don't actually use Arch because it doesn't have a GUI installer.
