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 members of the community for any reason.
  • 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, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    Technically Maya and Cinema4d are still the industry leaders (from my understanding, there’s also likely a lot of proprietary tools used). However you’re right about Blender being a competitor now. And that has to do with the fact that it’s almost feature “complete” in comparison to its competitors.

    Linux is non-viable for a whole lot of people, just based on the number of Adobe subscriptions. It’s fine for people to use windows. It’s also fine for people to not care about the bad parts about windows. The same way there is for Linux. It’s great at a lot of things, but it’s really bad at most other things. Windows just works, but there’s plenty that it takes away from the user. It’s all about how much troubleshooting you’re willing to do, and in my case that’s next to none.
