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.

    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.

    As someone who gradually went from arch to Manjaro to Ubuntu because I kept breaking my installs or not having time, this resonates lol.

    Manjaro likes to break on its own during updates in my experience

    [–] dustyData@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    The Arch Dilemma. If you never update the system, it will never break. To update without breaking you have to carefully check every package update, but it's time consuming. So you either spend time productively on an outdated but working and stable system or you spend time carefully keeping up a bleeding edge updated system.

    I once was so enthusiastic about Fedora...

    [–] Kizaing@lemmy.kizaing.ca 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    I settled on Fedora after distro hopping then the whole RHEL stuff happened and I'm so annoyed haha

    I'll probably stick with it for the time being, but I should probably have an exit strategy

    XeroLinux. It's a nice, convenient Arch-based one with a good installer and helper app. Makes getting into Arch feel a lot more newbie-friendly. I disable the latte docker and crazier desktop effects though, I like mine more plain and fast.

    you guessed it, I use joborun, like arch without systemd, runit optionally s6/66

    You're all beta testers for Rocky Linux.

    My first thought with this meme was chronic distrohopping. Do I tell them what I'm using this week? Or the last distro I used for any amount of time? Do I tell them the obscure distro name or the name of the major distro it's forked off of? If I'm dual booting do I tell them the experimental OS I'm daily driving or the reliable fallback I have on my other partition?

    I use Ubuntu ... but I frequent the Arch forums.

    Grateful we have passed the point at which this meme is relevant. Microsoft would never have imagined this 25 years ago.

    Whatever the Steam Deck runs.

    I like arch, but also use debian on computers I don't use often. Then I mess with the bsds on a few spare thinkpads.

    Almalinux. I used to use centos on servers and fedora workstation on my desktops but have switched over to Almalinux for both. Will be interesting to see what shakes out with the whole Redhat source repo change.

    Ubuntu was unstable for me on my desktop every time I tried. I always disliked Ubuntu on servers.

    When people hear I'm using Linux they're always like "Must be some Ubuntu" (I actually use Endeavour)

    [–] HRDS_654@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

    Ubuntu. lol

    Not for real, just want to stir the pot.
