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 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 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. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • 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.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    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.

    Why?

    Not judging or anything. Just curious why it's your go-to. Mine's either "Ubuntu" or "try several live distros, see what you like the feel of before installing one".

    I would never recommend Ubuntu to anyone. Canonical cannot be trusted and Snaps are a plague on Linux. They care more about their own control than the needs of users.

    But why Bazzite?

    • Being atomic makes it hard to break.
    • KDE Plasma is familiar to Windows users, and familiarity is important when making the jump.
    • It installs fast and, being based on Fedora, has excellent hardware support with no fuss.
    • It comes with gaming software preinstalled and ready-to-go.
    • It’s Flatpak-native, so finding, installing, and maintining software is safe and easy.

    It lets new users get back to their lives without having to learn much of anything. If users get more advanced and need to go non-atomic, I recommend graduating to Fedora KDE. It stays familiar but gives more control.

    From there, a Linux pilgrim has all the tools and experience they need to make their Linux journey their own.
