Community rules (click to expand) :::spoiler 1. Follow the site-wide rules

  • Instance-wide TOS: legal.lemmy.world/tos/
  • Lemmy code of conduct: join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html ::: :::spoiler 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.

:::spoiler 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. ::: :::spoiler 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • 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. ::: :::spoiler 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures We 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. :::  

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’d like to meet one Linux user who hasn’t run a user script they didn’t read every line of to ensure it didn’t do anything it shouldn’t do.
  • During my distro hopping phase of 2011, I tried out a distro called IP Fire.

    Is it really “running natively” if it requires running through a translation layer? WINE is not an emulator, but it also isn’t a native runtime library with a stable API, it’s a translation layer translating a reverse engineered, unstable third party’s API

    If only there was some sort of movement of gracious people willing to donate their expertise and time to write software and allow the users to fully control it by giving away the source code. That’d fix everything!

    So I realize this is a joke, but, and I am legit asking, isn’t there a command where you can tell Linux to treat Downloads and downloads as the same thing?
  • Many such cases.

    By default, LibreWolf deletes the user’s cookies and history when the browser is closed, I’m not sure if these devs have the same priorities as me.

    Linux developers can’t name their products any better than they name their variables. “Programming done, time to publish, now it just needs a name…” briefly pauses, then smashes face into keyboard… “There! … ehh, no, still missing something.” clicks random spot, types X… “Perfect! Send it!”
