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 tend to use whatever I consider the best one for that particular job. For example: Desktop/gaming: I currently use Ubuntu here because of greater commercial compatibility. But I am using Pop_OS on my System76 laptop and am liking it and may switch to that next time I need to rebuild the desktop image since it is downstream from Ubuntu compatibility should not be an issue. It would save be several post install customizations.

    Homelab virtual infra hosting: Proxmox. Because I wanted fancy features without having to pay for a VMWare VMUC license.

    Firewall/Router: PFSense

    Homelab Infra VMs: Debian Stable for what I consider "backbone" services like DNS and Ubuntu server for things like Jellyfin and my Bookstack server where I am less concerned with it being rock solid.

    I used to keep a Windows VM for the rare Windows specific things I wanted/needed. But eventually I got rid of that because I never needed it anyway.

    This is the way.
