- 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.

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'm not even ready for Arch because I can't make decisions for myself.
That's easy, just pick btrfs, gnome, pipewire, systemd, gdm, grub, and add flatpak in your additional packages.
Every other configuration is wrong.
/s
Newfangled bullshit! Choose ext2, twm, alsa, sysvinit, xinit, and compile additional software from source.
ext4, sway, pipewire, systemd, just use the the standard vconsole, grub and use pacman/AUR/custom PKGBUILDs for everything
Mostly agreed except for grub. Systemd-boot ftw
I mean it used to be called gummiboot. What more do you want?
Friends.
But besides that, yeah, other bootloaders would probably be good for my use case, but ... I'm too lazy, especially because 3/5 of my machines are supposed to be always on (and 2/5 are remote), so changing bootloader will be a hassle.
Only 3/7 correct. It's almost like you wanted to be wrong π
I yearn for Fedora
Try endeavoros, it's an opinionated arch with a simple installer
I put Linux Mint on a thumb drive once a few months ago to try it. So, yeah, I'm pretty into Linux.
That's unironically why I like Manjaro π
CachyOS on my side. Lol. Decide for me. I'll change it if I hate it. ππ
