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.

    I don't know, with Gnome extensions you menage to change anything you'd want to and even more.

    Maybe not anything, but the options are there

    But I don't want third-party extensions, I want a DE that comes with a first-party system tray

    Ok cool thats what you want, fair enough. We, as in Gnome users, don't mind third party extensions for features we want, and that's also fair enough. Every linux user has the option to use whatever DE/WM they want. This freedom is what we fight for.

    We, as in the whole linux community have big enough fights outside our community, the last thing we need is quarrels on the inside. "Yes you can use whatever you want do whatever you want", "Ok cool I'm gonna use this then", "NOO YOU HAVE TO USE THIS ARGHHHGH". It's pathetic.

    I don't want a DE cluttered with 10k possible options which led to possible unstability. I want a stable DE and the ability to change it exactly how i want it.

    The stability of KDE is there, but Gnome is much better. Good that we have the options
