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!

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    Don't install neofetch, so many dependencies.

    [–] [email protected] 31 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    But how would he show that he uses Arch, without Neofetch?

    Cat /etc/os-release ?

    [–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

    uname -a ?

    Neofetch is unmaintained btw, fastfetch is a good replacement... for whoever needs that. I wrote my own tool for getting system info and I like my terminals to have free space

    List of fetch tools

    Cool alternatives:

    Is it unmaintained completely or just feature complete and not getting recent updates?

    I've seen people say "this tool isn't being maintained because there aren't recent check ins" and those two things are very different.

    It is written in Bash which I guess makes it pretty high level and stable. Until it breaks it shouldnt need much work.

    Bash is damn slow though, so fastfetch (mainly in C) is way better for the "arch flex"

    oh no! not unmaintained! The unmaintenance gremlins are going to implement so many bugs and vulnerabilities!

    WDYM? The only listed dependency is bash

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Bash is bloat

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

    Anything more than ash/dash is bloat
