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, 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.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We 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.

- Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed. Β
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.

Oh sweet Jesus! LOL! This is me, though not with Linux, but trying to use Macports to get some damn program running and failing miserably because I couldn't get the permissions set on the dependencies correctly.
Rake right to the face. FML.
What I love is when you need a core part of the kernel and the only way to install it is by recompiling the kernel and you can't use bottles or docker for some obscure reason (yes this has happened to me no I wasn't happy.)
Are you using a debian-based distro, perhaps? (Espically if it's a stability-focused one)
It was on Fedora.
~~As a former Fedora user; if you know/want to know/learning how linux works, or if you are encountering this far too often, switch to EndeavourOS or Arch Linux if you're sure. Don't worry, 99% of things you care will work via Distrobox if you can't find it neither on the official repos nor the AUR (impossible.).~~
Edit: was
The only reason I am using fedora is because I wanted to try it out. I did use Arch (and also Endeavour) before but wanted to try out fedora.
here's a challenge: diodon plugins in github
Don't install software outside of official repos or at least avoid doing it like the plague
Use tools like distrobox and toobx to install apps from other distros
