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
sudoin 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.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
- We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
- Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed. Β
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 remove France.

Using a Debian is like being able to stay in bed in the morning. Heck, someone might even come by and change the sheets while you're in REM and you'll hardly even notice.
Everyone else is up and running about like headless chickens fighting dependency wars and system vulnerabilities and cutting themselves on that bleeding edge and you're hugging xteddy in blissful slumber.
Speaking of which, has he been ported to Wayland?
I have been using Gentoo for over three years and I feel exactly the same.
Updating the system after half a year when I didn't have time to do it? Absolutely painless, everything works.
And I get to quickly remove parts of software due to USE flags.
Also, no releases, I just update, no changing sources, no full-upgrade... just the same command every time.
There are binay packages for folks who don't want to compile locally.
Gentoo is the way.
Gentoo is awesome! But I hope you update at least your browser more often than that?
I didn't even have time to use the browser...
I understand, it can take quite some time to compile ;)
I have to switch over to debian some time. I sadly followed the many positive recommendations of Fedora and now my laptop crashes every time I wake it up from sleep.
