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.
    •  

    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.

    I see this always get commented, but I don't get it, what's the right way to use it?

    In this meme template both the lowest and highest IQ should say the same thing

    Edit: just realized, it could be sort of saved changing either gentoo for an arch based distro or arch for a gentoo based distro. This would partially save the symmetry of the template.

    Ahh, makes sense, but is it really wrong? To me it's just a different kind of joke

    I mean… Ubuntu is kinda-sorta just Debian with extra steps.

    [–] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 1 points 2 years ago

    Right, I think there's another bell curve meme to be made here

    [–] magnusrufus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

    The way memes work, yes it is wrong. Memes have a core structure or theme that variations are made around. Changing that core only really works if making a new meme or if making intentional commentary on the original meme itself. In this case by having nothing more than their preferred ranking of distros the creator has actually made themselves the target that the original meme would be making fun of.
