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
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
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.

Linux users are just idiots who don't have a life
I use NixOS btw
You forgot your obligatory BtW i uSe ArCh, kiddoβ¦
For accuracy, flip Windows and Mac in that diagram
Thank you, my twitch is now subsiding.
2024 version: Are you an idiot? Windows Do you swim in money? Mac No? Linux
So wait... Since I use both linux and a mac I'm a no life idiot? Yep, checks out.
I have a life and thatβs why I use Linux because I donβt have 3h to wait for a single forced windows update
the amount of moldβ¦
needs more
It should be: do you have a life? ---yes (none) ---- no (all 3)
Are you an idiot? --> No --> Yes, you are!
I might be an idiot, but I'm not going to use a Mac.
This meme also perpetuates the myth that to use Linux you must be an IT person. I just use it as a user.
This meme is old enough to drink beer now - in the US
Lol ok
This may be a hot take, but I don't think that on a linux specific meme community we should really care about what puts linux into a good light and what doesn't. I mean have you seen vegancirclejerk? We are here to laugh and that can be achived by self-deprecating humor or parodying what others think of our system of choice as well.
Yes. Sure. I see. Thanks. Maybe I was too focussed. Non IT people are nerdy too.
This meme has the logos of the OSs from around 2007. Back then there weren't many Linux non-IT users.
Ah. True. Thanks. Yes dark times with hardware compatibility back then.
I miss those old logos, the new ultra flat ultra simple logos are just so uninteresting compared to that era
I actually prefer the newer ones, i always hated the like shiny 3d type of look. However some companies/designers/whatever do a bit to much nowadays. ~~or should i say to littleπ€~~
I would switch MacOS and Microsoft. You really have to be an idiot to install that malware onto your computer voluntarily. MacOS is much safer and if you still have the need for shenanigans you have a Unix terminal to play with.
you have to be an idiot to pay that much for something that locked down and unserviceable.
It's stable and works with most commercial software. I have homebrew that I use to install gcc and whatever else I need, and I have yet to experience an answer on a Linux forum not being directly applicable when I need to solve a problem. Best of both worlds if you ask me.
Weird you're getting downvoted. I mean, they're not literally idiots, sure, but macOS and Windows are both terrible options. Seems to be a lot of Apple fanboys in the comments.
One does not simply install windows. It comes preinstalled
Pretty sure most homemade consumer computers are installing Windows. 70/30 tops.
(Maybe up to 50/50 if you don't count professionally built custom PCs)
