Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html

2. Be civil

Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".

Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸

Comments written in other languages are allowed.

The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.

Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.

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 remove France.

Psssst. Lots of devs and sysadmins act like they know a lot more than they do. The more you seek to learn, the more you will realize the breadth of this gap.

There are untouchable wizards of knowledge who nobody knows. There are dipshit idiots who should have never been given sudo on their own network let alone for a fortune 500's domain controllers.

You'll never be the best. If you put in any effort, you'll never be the worst.

Don't worry, the road runs both ways.

Started using Linux in high school because Red Hat had a star trek game I liked. Now I'm a Sysadmin/Sysarch.

If you've got the drive to learn, there's no better way to learn than by doing, and there's a lot of doing in Arch, especially on your first couple of installs. Welcome to the club.

Yeah may I recommend using something simpler than arch. I would recommend Linux mint if u want something that's not gonna break every 15minutes and give u headache.
