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.

    I guess congratulations on proving the point I made on my other post?

    Gnome’s attitude towards everything seems to be “$#¨$ you, like just actually go &%$# yourself. You do things our way or you use something else. We have decided these things are useless, if you think they are necessary you are a $&@# and %$#$ you and the horse you rode in on”

    That's just FOSS in general. If you don't like something, you create a fork or use something else.

    Nah, GNOME is worse mostly because it's the default on a ton of distros, so them having this attitude actively get's in the way of cross-desktop development instead of just being annoying.

    Yeah, and when you do, it's because you don't like things about the original, and here people are saying what they don't like.

    Nobody disagrees that you can choose something else, but that's not a reason to be uncritical.

    If you refuse to understand I'll just refuse to engage further then, keep wasting your time on pointless discussions on free software built by volunteers and what they spend their time on. I'll go back to actually working on them in whatever way I can.
