- 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.

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.

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.

I wish every time someone talked shit about operating systems they woke up having switched OS with their grandmother.
Good thing I installed Mint on her PC then.
I called her and convinced her to switch to DOS. Now you can play Chuck Yeagerβs air combat. Youβre welcome.
Commander Keen, ftw.
Zzt and Mechwarrior, thank u drive thru.
Same lmao, but for both my grandparents
They still haven't noticed anything different.
They definitely have, they are just being nice.
You gravely underestimate my grandparents' inexperience with tech.
Mint is just Windows 10 but Linux anyway for normal use
Cinnamon:
β Mom can we get windows?
β We already have windows at home.
AfterliveOS?
I would be so okay with this. My grandmother was a boss with a badass gaming rig.
What does that mean? Have the OS she had? Windows 10, I personally debloated it haha
No fair you cheated. She clicked an update for windows 11 and she loves Cortana!
She can't rice worth shit.
I don't think my grandmother used computers
I would have iPadOS π Thankfully I hate all OS's equally.
Amen. Getting tired of this pointless bashing. They each have their flaws. I would love to be all-in on Linux but will probably never get there.
