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!

    I run everything but work and a gaming rig on some flavor of Linux.

    In the past, I ran all Linux except work, so even gaming.

    I just missed the ease of use of third party tools, mostly for modding sjbgke player games.

    Maybe vortex works and I just don't understand his to use it on Linux, buy I've also run into third party tools for other games (again, single player - not trying to cheat necessarily, though some questionable QoL mods end up creeping in after a few play through) and I'm not sure how to get them to run.

    I've always had trouble with wine, never set up lutris, but proton was a boon for gamers everywhere, Linux or otherwise.

    Anyone have a primer for a power user (sysadmin type duties on my own server, have been using Kali as an educational tool since back track) that's pegged at gamers making the switch to Linux? I've mostly just figured it out looking to random guides and stack overflow, lol.
