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.

    I realised, that sometimes it is more like a different experience level. And some people forget it could be possible the asking person is an absolute newbie.

    And most people in forums are there because they want to help, but they want to help on this one asked case and won't teach the whole Linux universe, most people need years of experience for.

    The good thing is, we can use AI for this nowadays, it won't go mad if you are missing an elemental "you really should know, how this works" kind of error.

    Yeah people need to find the startingpoint often.

    But it is annoying if people ask stuff that is like a single web search, or throw out nonsensical myths that make no sense.

    Especially on the GrapheneOS discuss really technical people like always help them, and I think this has to be very tiring
