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

    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.

    I'm sure they also argue with randos about systemd and down vote any posts about any desktop environments other than the one that they use.

    It's probably a tiling window manager. ;)

    Even if it's the same DE/WM still downvote them, because they're using it wrong.

    I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as X, is in fact, X11/X.Org, or as I've recently taken to calling it, X11 plus X.Org. X11 is not an display server unto itself, but rather a free protocol of a fully functioning X.Org system ...

    [–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I took it to mean, people who says "I use *, BTW" so like, "I use Arch BTW" "I use Reddit BTW" "I program in HTML, BTW". Maybe I'm thinking of this wrong, BTW.

    [–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

    i though the same thing before reading other comments

    [–] mrvictory1@lemmy.world 42 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    No, I spend my time judging others' choice of software. /s

    [–] pyre@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

    solve for x

    x = arch

    that's pretty much all I've seen here

    Oh thank God. I thought they were bragging about using Twitter.

    I didn't even think about the name of that shitty platform when I jokingly wrote that. Let me be clear that I do NOT use X, btw.

    [–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Also using X btw, because I haven't figured out how to get two mouse cursors on Wayland yet πŸ˜…

    All my homies hate wayland, what kind of desktop isn’t a file

    [–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

    I use a computer btw

    [–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

    Holy smokes. Surely no one on lemmy would announce that they still use x! That place is a disaster!

    [edit] oh. I get it now. They just meant they don't think Wayland is ready yet. Sorry.

    [–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 8 points 1 year ago

    I use Wayland, BTW.

    [–] menemen@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (3 children)

    I use Ubuntu btw.

    No matter what the post is I suggest they should just use Linux instead.

    It’s better than anything else in the universe.

    [–] EatATaco@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago (5 children)

    "I use lube the masturbate"

    "You should just use Linux instead. It's better than anything else in the universe." -sturlabragason, definitely

    I stand by my earlier statement.

    Finally a reference to arch btw that I can not roll my eyes at. Should be a sticky post.

    [–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

    I use Arch btw.

    I use Debian btw

    Wayland is still too broken for him?

    [–] SuDmit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago

    First I somehow understood it like X as ex-twitter, and was like, "whoa, never saw it, bit interesting and kinda unique". Then made connection to Arch, and finally then to X11 /xorg. Huh

    [–] dukatos@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

    I use FreeBSD, BTW

    [–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

    Ubuntu ain't broke, usually, so I don't fix it.

    [–] Shayeta@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I've been daily driving the same Arch installation at work without any issues... for the past five years.
