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.
  • 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, <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.

    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 liked Vista (I was never a RAM peasant & I liked the glass theme) and hated XP.

    I was also always sad how Me was brutally sodomised by shitty third party drivers (who just renamed 98 drives).

    I considered W8 and 11 just as mediocre moneygrabs or maybe a marketing stunt.

    [–] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    Win10 was the last good version of Windows.

    Win10 is not that bad. And Me was never as bad as Vista or (especially) 8. Also, Linux is not a linear curve, it's stepped.

    ME was the worst. DOS based windows 9x in a world with Win2k and XP launched only 1 year later

    ME Was DOA even if it had been a "flawless" continuation of 98SE

    Windows Vista was better than 8 and 10, a lot of legacy devices in industry kept extended Vista support for years and years.

    y'all it's supposed to be a timeline, a hand drawn one too, that's why 8 is where it is. you guys are taking this way too seriously

    comparing macos to gravity's rainbow just smells right

    [–] HStone32@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

    I would rather describe Windows as a dampened oscillation with an undefined steady state.
