I use Linux because it plays games better.

We've come so far for there to be truth in that statement

I only switched this week, and I kinda disagree with the meme.

It's both.

I'm only dual booting because I'm a gamer and some games only run on Windows.

I use Linux because I care about privacy.

You use Linux because you want to rice.

We’re not the same.

You use Linux because cuz Linux is good.

I use Linux because the BSDs are less popular. I want to get paid and have corporate applications on my desktop.

We are not the same. 😂

I use linux because I can make it look like Vegetable Valley from the Kirby games.

I use Linux cause I wanted to prove I can, I hate both Linux and windows for different reasons but I at least can use both!

One of the biggest reasons I switched was of all the MS telemetry bullshit. That and I don’t know if I ever legally paid for a copy of Windows and I was tired of playing the key gen / cracked ISO game.

I’ve used Debian flavors of Linux for servers before so switching to it as my full time desktop OS was not hard. That, and, I don’t really use my desktop for stuff that uncommon. Most of the stuff I need I can get out of the box from the software center.

You're clearly not running servers.

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.

    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.
