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.

    Have you tried that other one? Slowroll? I forget what it's called. It's like tumbleweed but with monthly releases instead of constant.

    Thanks for reminding me about it! I might try that for my third computer, which I wouldn't update as often anyway. The others run Arch and Tumbleweed.

    It sounds really appealing! I wish it wasn't considered experimental or I'd consider it for my daily driver.

    [–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

    I didn't. Last time I looked, it was still in the early stages.

    And you don't actually have to upgrade daily. I often wait a couple weeks or more and the machines don't care one way or the other.

    Leap

    [–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    No, that's their normal one that's not rolling.

    [–] Manzas@lemdro.id 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    There are two editions leap or tumbleweed

    [–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

    Slowroll is new and still experimental, but it's a third option.
