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 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
sudoin 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. ๐ฌ๐ง Language/ัะทัะบ/Sprache
- This is primarily an English-speaking community. ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฆ๐บ๐บ๐ธ
- 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 figures
We 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. ย
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.

Exactly, linux mint supremacy
cough debian edition cough
Why do Linux people shit talk each other for using a different distro? It makes no sense.
Because they can't handle the templeOS supremacy
It's (usually) all in good fun.
Anyway, we can't talk shit to anyone except each-other. No one else understands our jargon.
yeah, and besides, we're all Hannah Montanna Linux bros. GTFO if not HML
Why can't everyone just use the distro that is right for them, which is Arch?
Or Gentoo! Or LFS! Or Slackware. Or Alpine. Or NixOS. I use Arch, by the way.
Closest thing a lot of us have to team sports
Because the ubuntu edition is just sypware (thanks canonical). Linux is great, but their are good and bad choices to be made
None of it seems to suggest it's spyware. I agree they do bad practices but spyware? C'mon
Also linux mint(the ububtu based one) also removes snaps and everything. How can you say anything like that about mint then?
Can you tell me more about Canonical spyware?
Its pretty well captured through this post:

Edit: https://www.linuxteck.com/ubuntu-trust-problem-2026/
I don't have a horse in the race, because Linux anything is better than the alternatives but I do think its funny that this infographic says Ubuntu has pushed malware through apt, but makes no mention of the XZ backdoor for Debian
On the server...? Isn't RHEL used primarily on servers?
Yes and no. Fedora is the upstream of RHEL, and like Fedora there are both workstation and server editions. The relationship is similar to RHEL being the LTS of Fedora but not quite the same. A lot of governments and enterprises that have switched to Linux for workstations are using RHEL.
Almost exclusively.
There's desktop RHEL, we used to run a CAD software on RHEL or SUSE
