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.

    Pro retoucher here. Guess I'm just a silly goose them.

    I mean you're not a 'pro retoucher' if you require adobe to do your job, you're simply an adobe user.

    I mean that makes absolutely no sense at all. It's what the professionals use for good reason.

    [–] Ziglin 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

    Popularity alone doesn't make it good (see ms windows) and yet it is still what professionals use because it's popular.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

    Yeah, what makes it good is the unparalelled feature set, which is also why the pros use it.

    Going to be honest here

    Windows is good for general professional use. Linux is absolutely terrible. MacOS is also decent.

    Professionals use windows because everyone knows how it functions, it has robust and supported user management and Microsoft provides significant enterprise support to companies using their operating system.

    Linux only has some of those features, they’re often half-assed or unsupported, and there’s no central authority for help.

    It’s fine for personal machines, but I absolutely disagree that the only thing windows has going for it is popularity.

    What makes Linux terrible in your eyes?

    Professional programmers use Linux too.

    Windows is extremely unstable compared to my Linux experience. (Unless it no longer bsods regularly) I have had two kernel panics on my Linux installation total. (For comparison the Windows laptop I used to own crashed multiple times a month)

    Also I was thinking more of individuals doing work rather than in a large environment, so that might make a difference though the little management software I've seen for Windows was pretty disappointing.
