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.

Shit like this is why desktop Linux will never be mainstream.
People made the same memes about Windows's system32 folder, and look at them.
no it's not. What IS keeping it from being mainstream is googling something basic like "how to run .sh linux" and getting nothing but
sudo chmod +x li.sh
Along with 3 other paragraphs of reading, writing, and security, or just other complicated stuff they don't need when they really just need to click properties then allow executable.
And god help you if you dare to ask such a simple question on any Linux forum.
That's not googling, that's ducking. Besides everyone knows you should get that kind of answer from ChatGPT.
Duck it!
