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.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    micro is one of the first things I install on a new distro. I can't live without it now.

    Same. Honestly, distros really ought to symlink pico/nano to micro and make it the new default.

    It’s everything a normal person needs from emacs/vim without all the crazy keybinds or modes. It’s just as easy as nano to make a quick edit but it’s also just a as capable and featureful as vim with a load of plugins installed and configured. It sadly however cannot be used as a music player or torrent client (yet) unlike the Do Everything And Do It Okayish emacs. (I’m still angry about the RSI emacs caused me in university - I still rebind capslock to ctrl to this day).
