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 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.
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.

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.

Nobody using Windows is sad about this like the meme suggests however. Literally no one is "team windows" lol
Nobody is actively team windows, but they immediately become team windows as soon as you suggest they try Linux.
Maybe because people just don't care for unsolicited "advice" from Linux nerds?
Yeah, I'm a full-time Linux user but there are a lot of people who just seem to use Linux as a replacement for a personality and it's fucking awful.
Not limited to just Linux, obvs, but it's the topic de jure.
No, there has to be a different reason women won't talk to me
I mean, I use Windows more than Linux, but seeing the news that it's easier to play games on Linux is great. And from a dev perspective, if I more stuff just works on Linux, fucking fantastic.
That's wrong. It's definitely not most people, but many are undoubtedly team windows people.
Hey, just FYI, because these English rules about contractions can be very complex and confusing: you would never contract in this case. You would always write out "there is." One helpful way to think about it is that "there is" is only contracted if it's followed by an object:
but if it's followed by punctuation, don't contract it:
