2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- 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.
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
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
- We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
- Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed. Β
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 remove France.

On the 5 distros i used, i had different problems that would make normal people uninstall the OS
I could ignore them because the benefits outweigh the problems, other people probably couldnt because they want a stable computer, not cool features
Those get a Steam Deck
A steam deck isnt practical for a lot of things(i assume from pictures, i dont own one)
Its also pretty expensive by my countries standard
I use a docked Steam Deck with external monitor, keyboard, and mouse all the time. It's a regular PC.
Then watch video reviews as well. Your lack of knowledge doesn't invalidate what I wrote. This is literally the first result on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ0KxIzdyR8
It's not expensive by comparison to other PCs with similar hardware.
I completely forgot about external keyboards and monitors. I should have watched a review before making that comment
By expensive, i didnt mean relative to its hardware, i meant relative to how much people are willing to pay
I still think people would avoid the steamdeck because it looks specialized for gaming
