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!

    Eh, I've been around the block at this point. Fedora ftw. Simple, easy, GUI installer, "just works"™️, sane package manager, normie default DEs, stable, corporate backing. Maybe not for a purist or enthusiast, but I don't have time for that stuff anymore anyways. My days of pouring hours into getting my Arch install just right are long past me. That was for when I still had free time.

    Except you have to wait 5 seconds before it goes brrrr because of snaps.

    You can turn them off, but good luck keeping firefox up to date.

    Or just use Waterfox or LibreWolf?

    [–] nottheengineer@feddit.de -1 points 1 year ago

    Ah yes, vendor lock-in in desktop linux.

    I don't get why anyone thinks this is acceptable in any way.

    Yikes, I forgot about the All-Snap Ubuntu Desktop!

    [–] Sivaru@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    and apt is awful.

    [–] mafbar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

    Man, why do people hate apt so much? Maybe because I'm a filthy casual but I never really had any big problems with apt.
