Sister communities:
Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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.

Any immutable distro, Debian, Ubuntu, all their derivatives, Fedora, all its derivatives, OpenSUSE, Slackware, ...
Basically, 95+% of installed Linux systems would retain the old or a backup kernel during an upgrade.
good answer to a bad and uninformed question, thanks.
Debian and Ubuntu are not immutable distributions by default, unless I am mistaken.
Any immutable distro and Debian and Ubuntu and all their derivatives
They weren't saying Debian and Ubuntu are immutable - they were saying "any immutable distro", "Debian", and "Ubuntu" as three separate items in a list.
Ohh, I'm dumb
Nah, we're just used to bad punctuation and your brain over-corrected, which is normal. If they actually were saying what you thought before, the correct way of writing it would be with a colon.
