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!

    I would suggest Fedora KDE spin or Opensuse. Both have KDE as first class citizen.

    I mean if their problems were Plasma-specific, it might also be a good idea to try Gnome or something instead.

    True but I would go with Mate, Budgie or XFCE because I'm an old fashioned guy :) The new (now it's old I guess) gnome philosophy hasn't made a lot of sense to me on a non-touch device.

    Exactly, it feels gimmicky as hell and barely workable when you need to start dealing with more than one ahem, window or boxes of stuff to look at

    🤣 Gnome 2 was so usable. I wasn't a fan of KDE (3 at that point?) because it felt too complicated.
