- 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.

- 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.

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.

The duck should be Linux Mint, the only linux distro thats never given me an issue on any computer I used in my life. Sometimes I contemplate turning off timeshift because its been years since i've needed it and the 30-50gb space could be better used.
Been using arch for more than 3 years never had a single issue that can't be easily fixed. But this is not the case for everyone. And this is not the case with mint either so, It shouldn't be any specific distro.
Easily is relative. A Google search or a terminal is too much for some people.
It always depends on the device and what you intend to do with it. Mint is perfect ootb on my laptop, but it's lacking for the things I use my desktop PC for.
There never is a one fits all
That is the reason there's so many distro. Use whatever suits you need.
