Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

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.
    • 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 fork-bomb your computer.

    Yep, been in the same boat ๐Ÿ˜‚. Was an LTS fan for a long long time till I realized... this shit ain't worth it ๐Ÿ˜‚.

    Everthing there is out there in 99% of the cases compiles against latest libraries. And well, LTS is just... lagging behind ๐Ÿคท. So, you solve one lib dependcy and then, bam, another one pops up... OK, solved that one, bam, another one ๐Ÿ˜’... it just gets frustrating to compile stuff on LTS.

    And then you get all sorts of errors from the package manager cuz you did the unthinkable - install latest libs on an LTS distro.

    LTS is good for one thing only nowadays - servers.
