Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- 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.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, 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 fork-bomb your computer.

Welp, off to macOS now. Sorry guys I can't be a part of this community anymore.
Too expensive for me. FreeBSD it is!
Time to boot up the old windows 98 machine from the closet and start making my own modern app alternative.
I’d rather go for Win95, now that dotnet9x is out there and I can run modern software: https://youtu.be/CTUMNtKQLl8?si=zM7L49Y4wuDL_XYN
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Plan 9, here I go!
There's always BeOS.
Remember BeOS and how it was going to be the future?
Poor BeOS.
(Yes, yes, Haiku. But who uses it?)
I ran haiku on a laptop at one point, actually supported it really well
It's probably a good OS, but I doubt it will ever become the dominant new OS was hoped BeOS would become.
