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!

    You can use window managers instead of DEs. While I prefer DEs because how much features they have you may not need these features

    Instructions unclear, installed sway and 50 utilities for it.

    smh get real, install Hyprland and 50 utilities for it (30 of those are sway utilities)

    But at least you don't need to use a stupidly long argument to start it (I know both don't really have support but sway runs it in your face even more than normal) because you can't quite be as choosy with laptops as you can be with desktops....

    I haven't had laptop-related issues on either

    This is the way.

    Install tiling wm, because I can't without anymore. Install a DE, because I actually like the discoverability of graphical settings programs.
