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.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
    • 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

  • 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.

    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.

    AI is slowly getting inside the Linux ecosystem (At the top of my head: Some contributions to Kwin and the entire Lutris controversy). Let's enjoy making fun of Win 11 until we can't.

    TBH I'm very happy with the state of Linux desktop as it has been for the past 3-5 years or so. If things enshittify I'm just gradually freezing the versions that I like for most things, except stuff that directly interfaces with the internet (kernel, nftables, browser, nix, git, ssh, rclone). My main hope is that LibreWolf keeps updating and doesn't let in too much AI slop from firefox, and I'm reasonably sure everything else on that list is quite difficult to enshittify.

    Some contributions to Kwin

    Link please

    That's not the same at all though. Complaining about AI "features" being shoved down users throat, and AI being used by developers are very different things.

    Both can be complained about, absolutely, but they are completely different things.

    If Microsoft was using all artisanal human written code to delivery all the AI crap, I wouldn't be complaining about it any less.

    Yes, for sure.

    But we will eventually clean up our AI slop code mistakes. I'm not so sure if Microslop will or not. It might not be profitable.

    Also, the good thing of open source software is that anyone can clean off any bullshit code.

    [–] Patrikvo@lemmy.zip 0 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

    But can you clean it up faster than AI can create new bullshit code?

    [–] MattW03@lemmy.ca 1 points 46 minutes ago

    If some idiot don't automatically add AI slop and the developer have the actual time to check the new code before adding it to the distro release, then sure. Is not like they are forced to run pushing new updates full of slop just to make the investors happy and having the whole sistem flooded with bugs...

    I mean, who would be so stupid to do that? 😁

    You don't need to pull the new bs...
