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.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 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'm cool with AppImage as well, they just work.

    [–] Dojan@pawb.social 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    I used a daemon to manage my AppImages, worked great until fairly recently where it began mounting way too many FUSEs and just make AppImages stop working altogether. I miss it, because now I have to manually manage the AppImages, and that makes me sad. :(

    I'm lazy.

    i use Gear Lever it's alright for managing appimages

    [–] Dojan@pawb.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    I’ll give it a whirl! Thank you!

    Also there's AM in case that one doesn't work out.

    [–] Dojan@pawb.social 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Thank you! I did actually spend some time yesterday setting up some AppImages with Gear Lever, and so far it seems alright. The update feature seems very neat.

    I might give AM a whirl on my laptop though!

    I don't think I've used a snap, flatpac, or appimage package yet.

    Amusing. Because years before they existed, I used to pray such existed.

    Interesting to see the tooling around such.

    ::: spoiler Still unlikely to use though perhaps largely because I've been using BedrockLinux since 2012
