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 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 sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 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.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.

    I actually like Linux, but I'm considering just blocking all the Linux communities because it's so incredibly boring to just see you guys circle jerking all day long. We get it. We all get it.

    My guy, you are on linuxmemes lmao

    I came here hoping to see gnome and X11 memes. You know, actual Linux memes.

    Instead I found "Windows bad" circlejerking.

    Distros and package managers are bad. Reject modernity, embrace compiled source. Burn Lennart Pottering at the stake!

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    No, I'm on All, but a far higher percentage than most other content is just the same message in slightly different words on repeat, "Linux good, Binbows bad."

    [–] manefraim@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Binbows isn't that bad, it's Michaelsoft as a company we should worry about.

    But have you heard the latest hilarious thing? Windows... BAD! Hahaha! My goodness, I'm sure you never could have imagined. Also, I use Arch, in case you were wondering.

    [–] ibk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    I mean just go ahead and block it, why make this rant at all, if you are seeing it on All its because of the amount of Linux users on Lemmy.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    I mean, I've got a 75% upvote ratio right now, so perhaps I'm not alone in thinking it's a bit excessive?

    [–] ibk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    And whats the point? Should all Linux memes communities close so that you don't see them in All? Should people stop making Linux memes at all? What are you achieving with your rant? You don't like it. We get it. You and that 75% can block the community and move on.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    I did. Go outside and breath for a bit, the weather is nice today.

    [–] ibk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Ah yes, this is literally the first time I visit Lemmy today after uni and the first post I see on All and that I interact with in more than a week but I am the one that has to go outside, not the person that apparently spends all day on Lemmy, so much so that is tired of seeing Linux memes on its feed. Have a nice day as well, and I truly mean it.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    I don't know your life story, I only know you got pretty riled up over nothing at all on the Internet, by a strangers comment. Usually a good sign you need to take a break and relax.

    [–] SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Bro stop the virtue signalling, you got triggered by memes.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Are triggered and annoyed synonymous? I'm not angry or anything, so triggered doesn't feel like the right word, but if it fits, sure I'm hella' triggered bro.

    [–] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    You are bothered by Linux memes and now acting like you're not bothered. I'm sorry to be rude, but I hope your kernels remain closed source.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago

    Wildly rude even, for no reason. Scumbag behavior.

    So like, you browse All, find communities minding their own business making little in-jokes, and pop in to say "hey assholes, I don't appreciate you talking about all this stuff you like talking about! How about you shut up so I don't have to skip past your posts when I'm deliberately skimming everything!"

    Seems fair.

    [–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago

    Yep, that's what I said, verbatim.
