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.

    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.

    Sway is fine. I still prefer i3 because I still use many X applications.

    Now for this meme specifically, sway and i3wm are actually easy to understand once you know the basic key chords. Sway in particular can also allow drag and drop to tile manually without shortcuts.

    Dwm though is a nightmare for Linux beginners let alone those who never use Linux before. I3 needs a .config file, so newbies can read it and figure out the key bindings. On Dwm? It doesnt need one because the system can just run the compiled dwm executable. So if you really want to make it more secure: configure dwm to your likings => compile it => delete the source folder. Nobody will know wtf is going on, except you.

    multi step authentication flows that are customizable for each user would be kinda cool if that doesn't exist already.

    not too crazy like two factor authentication, just patterns or puzzles to arrange in different ways.

    so every time someone tries to access an account, the authentication process is different every time

    It opens up a page of my handwriting and it must be translated in order to unlock the computer. Even the most powerful linguist in the world couldn't crack it.

    delightfully horrifying

    I love sway :3

    I was an i3 and sway user but I lapsed to the dark side.

    I tried KDE with Krohnkite tilling extension on a new laptop and liked it way too much. It’s slowly becoming my main DE.

    It’s configured with i3 shortcuts of course, so there’s that.

    EXWM is probably even more obscure, although emacs users are the exact kinda people you should protect your computer from.

    Tried this once, sort of. But it was in wmii. I switched workspace, and then my friend wanted the browser, so I say go ahead. He presses the little 2 down in the corner, I did not even know it was clickable, and that happens to be the workspace with the browser.

    For this reason i kinda like using pass + pass-otp as my password manager as well. I mean regardless they still need to know my master password of course, but on top of that they most likely won't even know how to use it since it cli based.

    Yeah, that's exactly me
