Community rules (click to expand)

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.
  • 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
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • 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.
  • Β 

    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.

    Just answer honestly,
    While floorp has a more flowy and relaxed security model that still allows interaction with local files and is just overall easier to get into, I also like Zen for it's peace of mind, with the ability to suspend execution of javascript on page load turned on as a default feature, however it can be quite uptight a what does and doesn't constitute valid html

    Damn region locks, poob has nothing for me because I'm not within the USA or Canada :(

    [–] genevieve@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

    VPN, my sibling in Satan.

    Or piracy.

    Gotta watch Goncharov somehow.

    [–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 days ago

    I signed up for a 3-year special deal on SurfRemora VPN on the advice of my favourite influencer only to find out poob blocks it :(

    I wasted twenty minutes of my life learning enough tumblr to understand the second note. tumblr is a strange and fascinating country, like Listenbourg.

    Many combolations, Elizagerth!

    https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/poob

    From Proto-Hmong *pʉŋᴬ (β€œto fall”), probably borrowed from Middle Chinese ε΄© (MC pong, β€œto collapse, crumble”).[1]

    1. to lose, fail
      Nws poob nyiaj rau kev twv txiaj. ― He loses money to gambling.
      Nws poob hoob. ― He fails a class

    Darn that Proto-Hmong crowd and their modern, trendy words.

    How do you pronounce "twv"?

    Search people talking Hmong language (a language distributed in Laos and South China) in the internet.

    [–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

    I reckon the w is pronounced like in Welsh.

    we have gone so far down the meta-irony abyss there is no turning back.

    In his newest (and worst) How Do You Do Fellow Kids moment, Mark Zuckerberg launches the Poob service, accessible exclusively through the Metaverse. What does it do? Fucked if we know.

    I genuinely use Floorp as my main daily browser lol

    [–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

    Same. I didn't realise there was anything wrong with it tbh

    [–] Jhex@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

    same, actually I use FireDragon... what's wrong with it?

    [–] genevieve@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

    the maintainer Zarka is a bit of a sexually abusive jerk

    [–] UltraBlack@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)
    1. Provide source
    2. Never heard of zarka. FireDragon is being maintained by the garudalinux devs and they are some of the nicest people I ever met

    i was making a bad dragon joke

    [–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 days ago

    But have you tried Plingo?

    [–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

    I really wanted to like floorp but scrolling on a touchpad is awful on it for some reason. It's the only fork i have issues with the scrolling on a touchpad.

    [–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 days ago

    Oh weird, I use it with a touchpad on my laptop (Lenovo Ideapad if that makes any difference) and it's always been fine for me.
