1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

I'm planning to switch away from Kubuntu after using it for at least a decade on my desktop and laptop machines. The whole snap thing gets annoying. Yes, I can override it, I know, but...effort. I'm planning to just go to Debian.
Just get KDE from the horse's mouth then and use KDE Neon. Ubuntu packages, but snapd isn't even installed by default. It also ships with rolling release stable KDE, but isn't rolling release otherwise.
I'm not clear on the benefit of that over just running Debian. And aren't there concerns about Canonical?
It just means your KDE version is newer, it's also the distro made by the KDE devs. I'm not too worried about canonical, they're annoying, but it rarely affects me.
TIL KDE has their own official distro.
