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.

    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    You make an excel to track your operating system of choice for the year but don't include the distro?!? For shame.

    what's between 1994 and 2001? MS DOS?

    No, I just didn't have a computer. I bought a MTX 80C and later a Ford Fiesta mk3, I also bought some Technics SL-1200 so I sould pretend to be a DJ:

    In the end I just didn't have the need nor time for a computer.

    Ok of I really think hard I might get some pcs and os's that I used since I can remember. But who has such a detailed list of os's they use?

    Are Raspberrypis included, do work pcs count?

    [–] nao@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago

    You can include them if you want to

    [–] jeena@jemmy.jeena.net 1 points 9 months ago

    In my case work and private OSses align quite well in the timeline, Raspberry Pi's I didn't put in here.

    I rate A+ now, very good.

    An extra large, it seems. I don't get it either.

    Did you stop using a computer between 1994 and 2001? I feel like there's some interesting story in there.

    [–] jeena@jemmy.jeena.net 3 points 9 months ago

    Yes I did stop using computers during that time. While I had my Amiga in school only nerds had PCs, so I didn't get one, even though I was programming on my Amiga with AMIGABasic and so on. I guess it was mostly because I started doing normal teenager stuff once I was 16 like motorbikes, cars, playing music, going to the clubs, etc. so there was no time and no desire to use a computer. Only once everyone seemed to have internet at home I started feeling left out a bit. for some months I started usincgcomputers in Internet Cafes and then decided to get a used PC.

    I actually feel bad for you using Linux before most stuff had measured. Font anti aliasing, font name, screen tearing, drivers, flatpaks etc.
