- 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.

Me, installimg a few Flatpak apps, having them work for a while then suddenly break for no apparent reason, spend an enture day trying to fix them, only for an update acouple days later to fix it.
me, wondering why my VHDs in 86box kept disappearing until I realised I needed to set the permissions in my distro's Flatpak settings:
Me when my sound randomly goes poof and starts acting on the fritz
Terminal please run my pulse killer file. Fixed.
Then sometimes my chat/game mixer just breaks. And one only works, then on a random day it is just mysteriously works again without doing anything.
Then my windows laptop is like: File Explorer crashes fairly regularly. Word died sometimes. The battery percentage is now just a percentage with no number!
Now my WiFi toggle states it's offline... Opens networks, ah lovely it says connected. Same with Bluetooth.
Much rather just have the more reliable Linux.
Lol, that used to happen to me a lot when I used Windows. I resized my Linux partition and rarely return, I only have the basics installed because of some uni projects that might require Windows software and it still manages to bug while updating or opening Teams
