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!

    Wayland reduces bugs and standardizes the desktop, and flatpak makes it easier for distros to include apps without going through the process of packaging them.

    This post is FUD bullshit, Wayland and Flatpak are making it easier to run an indie distro.

    I've been using Wayland for a while, and I've seen more bugs with my WMs than in my ~1000 hours of Deep Rock Galactic playtime

    Reduces bugs 🤣

    Adding 10 bugs to your apps for every bug removed from the display manager

    Wayland reduces bugs

    As I have to give a few lectures, I can't say I'm pleased with how screen-sharing or using a projector in the classroom fails almost half of the time and always embarrasses me in front of everyone. I ended up purging the Wayland stuff and going back to good ol' i3 and I haven't had a display-related issue ever since.

    X11 works, it may not be as sexy or modern as Wayland but it's battle-tested and just works and for the vast majority of people, excluding Wayland's bugs, the differences are not even noticeable.

    This post isn't bullshit. The title indicates that we should discuss in the comments. 🙂 I'm not OP btw.
