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!

    We're on holidays and the kids had me install WireGuard on their devices to get rid of the ads, you know, like it is at home.

    I don't know how Wireguard blocks your ads, but ok

    We're using it to access the LAN and the two pihole instances within

    Just have them install ublock origin when they're away from home. It is going to be way more efficient.

    I'm not convinced it will help with the crazy invasive ads served in random free android games 😅 But I'll look into it, thanks

    PIA has an adblocker for their VPN service in the mobile app.
