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.

i don't get what's going on in this comment section - are we going to be mad at some code for what a person says on social media?
i tried running Firefox on my 2018 budget phone and every https handshake takes 5 awkward seconds and it's more like 0.5 seconds on brave. it's open source, built in dark mode, and runs well for me. it's not even a gut feeling thing, on Android this is objectively beating the competition within the privacy conscious space.
i believe COVID is as natural and genuine as the historically evident spanish flu - but even if someone exists who is too stupid to get it, I'm happily enjoying the fact that he has nothing to do with me
I'm sorry, I'm of the mind of not endorsing with my use, the products of those who want me dead.
Allow me to expand my point. If you are using a computing device of any type, you are using the fruits of the labor of IBM, Xerox, and AT&t from the 1950s and 1960s. That means, by your argument, you are glorifying racism, homophobia, sexual assault and xenophobia among other things. You should definitely get off the internet.
the same freedom that affords him the ability to be a dumbass in public affords you the freedom to not be dead.
though i do get the worries that come with the extremism spreading out.
most social media anger is trying to fix problems that aren't problems. meanwhile politicians get away not pivoting towards UBI. then we get more nationalists, and then we get more social media shitstorms. 😬 anyways, enjoy the ride everyone
If they get nothing from your use of it, look at it as making a bigot give you free shit.
I might suggest getting off the internet and finding a completely self-sufficient lifestyle then. I guarantee you there are people that you would disagree with in person, in every supply chain.
Better stop buying anything made in China then, what with the slavery and human rights abuses. And you should stop using oil and gas products as well because climate change kills. Good luck with that.
