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!


    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.

    I feel like most everyone* who cares about distros likes Debian. It may not be the right distro for your use case, but you're glad it's around.

    * I'm sure even Debian has it's haters. But I think it's a minority.

    I don't really like debian. I can respect it as a good distro that's based and all, but It doesn't fit my use case of 'just works' the same way my steamdeck does (in regards to gaming and Windows similarly). For that I've found Bazzite or Kubuntu for their usage of KDE. (also manjaro was buggy 🤷‍♀️)

    I still can't decide if I want to use Arch based to be similar to my SteamDeck, or Ubuntu based because dealing with packages is confusing.

    However I have semi-given up on Linux for my desktop PC because Nvidia sucks and I'll try again on my semi-anually "ooo let's try Linux again!" after Microsoft makes another dumb change. I'm gonna stick with it one day lol

    Give up on nvidia, IMO.
