Sister communities:
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.

MODERATORS
Religion is about shit that is not real. Linux is about good engineering and open source software.
Big fat downvote for this pathetic attempt st being provocative.
"Year of Linux on Desktop"
"Better than Windows"
"Linux is easy"
"You never need to use the terminal"
"Everything you need runs on Linux"
"Android IS Linux, therefore is the most popular OS"
Yeah, sounds like religion to me.
More of a meme than anything else
Well yeah, it is in almost every way.
It’s not particularly hard.
Yeah, that’s just a lie.
Depends what you need
Well, it is.
Except all of it is true and tested. :/
Ps: have you ever heard anyone say "Islam/Sikhism/AnyOtherReligion is easy"?
No. Because it's a really dumb comparison.
Lol none of that was true, though. That was the entire joke.
Talking like a true believer, thank you for making my point.
Whatever you need to say to make yourself feel better.
Sure, whatever. I have no horse in this race, I just enjoy watching the meltdown over an OS.
The meltdown is over really crappy logic.
Remember kids, don't hesitate to use the "elitism" card when you're loosing an linux argument
I didn't realise it was a competition. BTW, how do someone loose an argument? By making generic points? By making it less specific?
Naw
Yea
Get gud
Terminal is the shit
Well it could, fuck adobe
Ehh no not really
Lol yeah, it's JUST Adobe. Okay.
StrawnmanOS released soon?
Android is crap and Linux is better not mentioned together with it. I want a true Linux phone with gnome-shell as a user interface!
Sadly existing phones don't fit in my pocket and have a very bad battery life.
You seem like a fun person.
I am fun, just not in the presence of bs and cheap jokes.
I mean, people's attitude towards linux here is similar to religion
This is a meme community, I'm not sure what you're expecting.
Sure, but then your meme format isn't reflecting that so clearly.
Nope.
The attitude here is the same as the attitude towards anything that really works and it works really well so people love to recommend it. This happens to many other things and products.
