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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 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.
    •  

    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 miss xkill after my recent switch to Wayland. I have yet to find a replacement.

    [–] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

    Does CTRL-ALT-ESC still work in Wayland (assuming KDE, might be desktop dependent)

    [–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

    Doesn't do anything on GNOME/Wayland for me.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Yep, works in KDE.

    [–] Mwa@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

    On Cinnamon (experimental Wayland) it will only work on the Desktop wallpaper area.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    So, you have to start it while your cursor is over the wallpaper, but then you can click on windows to kill them, right?

    [–] Mwa@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

    yes

    For people using hyprland, you can get the same functionality as xkill by running hyprctl kill , I have it bound to a shortcut for easy access
