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 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.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
    • 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
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.

    ...you get a firefox without support even to pipewire, after many hours of compilation :)

    (it should be www-client, without the S)

    Are you not using a desktop profile? That sets the sane defaults you're missing

    [–] rita@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

    yes, i am

    I'm very confused about that btw, cuz i also set pipewire on global use flags, so, i think firefox should be affected by that, no?

    I dunno, but i will try to recompile that this night again lol

    www-client/firefox does not have a pipewire use flag, it uses pulseaudio which can use the pipewire backend for playing the audio (not sure about the specifics) https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PipeWire for all issues, I'd recommend #gentoo on irc.libera.chat

    whaaa? i was pretty sure that it has a pipewire flag... so, i think it explains some things lol

    And not many packages do.

    (And while poking around looking at that on my latest (still quite fresh) Gentoo install, I realised I didn't have gentoolkit installed yet, for equery (for what little use equery h did me, since I have no packages installed using pipewire (or system-pipewire). Ah well, got it installed now. Thanks.)
