  • 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.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 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.

    The best distro is obviously:

    SpoilerThe one you like using πŸ˜‰

    Hannah Montana Linux. FTFY

    My Windows 10 setup was extremely optimized and my favorite OS.

    I use Linux for my daily driver now, but every so often I have to dig out my (air gapped) Windows 10 laptop to do something and it’s just… nice.

    [–] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 10 points 2 weeks ago

    I'm sorry you lost your nice setup that you liked. I hope we see the day that you're able to have a setup you love just as much that treats you well :)

    I really liked Windows 10 too. I loved the ergonomics of the desktop. The start menu with tiles was brilliant. The flat square windows that use every pixel of your screen. The close button that takes the whole corner.

    I could swing my mouse around and click without looking and knew exactly what I was hitting.

    Then after a few years they enshittified it just before Windows 11.

    You can lace your drugs with rice

    [–] ollie@pawb.social 5 points 2 weeks ago

    EXACTLY! we have so many good choices that can work with our individual preferences, use whatever the heck you like!

    [–] testaccount789@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    What if it's something cursed like Proxmox on a laptop with KDE Plasma installed on host, NAT set up for VMs to use WiFi, passing wayland windows over waypipe through vsock and launching programs using manually created shortcuts which start the programs over SSH (because it can be done)?

    [–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

    Can’t say I’d personally touch it lmao but if you’re happy with it, then that’s all that matters πŸ˜„

    [–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 30 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    Kinda expecting the right one to be Hannah Montana Linux.

    With the powers combined of Arch and Drugs I remain totally fuckin' average! Checkmate.

    I was gonna fix my backups, but I got high.
    I was gonna be able to restore, but then I got high.
    Now I lost all my crap, and I know why! (Why man?) Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.

    [–] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

    Arch or Mutha Fn DE-BAY-ANN!

    Edit:

    We ain't gonna sell none of these muthafuckin' Operating systems cuz

    Let's go back to Debian and compile some more kernels, cuz

    Fuck it

    Fuck the corporate world, biatch

    [–] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

    I dunno if this is very accurate. I run Debian and I’m dumb as shit.

    [–] swagmoney@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 weeks ago

    +1 dumb Debian user checking in

    [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

    It's one step away from ubuntu /s (kinda)

    [–] osanna@lemmy.vg 14 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

    There’s a distro called drugs?? I’ve never heard of it

    [–] jim3692@discuss.online 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    It's actually called NixOS (talking from personal experience)

    [–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    if you prefer drugs on the more legal side try guix :))))

    [–] jim3692@discuss.online 1 points 1 day ago

    I have read about guix, but I don't any reason to switch from NixOS. Guix seems to be way less mature than Nix.

    Besides this, I have dedicated a ton of time developing a framework that manages flakes on NixOS builds. There is no way I would start from scratch, just to leave systemd.

    [–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    Hmmm, I don't think I've ever tried DrugsOS. Can you link to their site?

    FreeBSD and PCP

    [–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    This implies 2030 will be the year of Linux desktop

    [–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

    Just like every year since 2004.

    [–] Fives@discuss.online 6 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

    What if I run both Arch and Debian?

    [–] fartsparkles@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

    Found the Qubes user.

    🎢SuicideOS is painless 🎢

    [–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    I do this... am i weird? I mean, i am... but am i because of that?

    [–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

    Nah, I also do; arch on my desktop and laptop, debian on my server.

    Unless... we're both weird... I mean, I'm also weird... but because of unrelated reasons?

    [–] Fives@discuss.online 2 points 2 weeks ago

    Exactly. Arch on my laptops and desktop, Debian on my server.

    This is the way.

    [–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

    Na, my daily work is on debian, i just play on arch

    [–] GripenGal@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

    Who here has never troubleshot a homelab during a party?

    [–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

    Where do I stand since I smoke a shit ton of weed and use debian?

    [–] magnue@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

    Hey man drugs is just personal manual neurochemistry don’t do me dirty like that

    [–] GalacticSushi@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    Where is TempleOS you heathen?

    [–] Jo4ted@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

    The rapture happens between now and 2030, all its users ascend to heaven.

    [–] UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    I don't hate release models, I hate the elites. And no, I don't mean the Gentoo folks

    That's understandable. The Sangheili were responsible for almost wiping our species out, after all.

    [–] pulsey@feddit.org 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    Brain swelling is not a good sign.

    [–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago

    brain shrinking is also not good either
