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. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • 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.
  •  

    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 don't think there's really anyone who'd argue against that and actually mean it.

    You could install a mobile GNU/Linux Custom Rom on your Android phone.
    Assuming you have one that's supported ofc.

    Hey linux friends, what are you doing on your phones that a pinephone doesn't cut it? If I have a DSLR and don't give a shit about mobile social media, is there an issue?

    I'd say the big issue is how much extra effort things take to do. You are relying a lot on web pages instead of applications and a lot of them don't feel really well optimized. Actions that would normally take a minute might take four minutes.

    There's some issues with native apps too. When I was using my PinePhone I don't think I was able to get music to play in the background for example. I imagine this has been fixed by now but it was still frustrating.

    I'll be honest, I don't know the UX and was looking to actually pick up a pine phone. I will continue my research!

    I feel like people that unironically tout Linux phones as stable enough are the same people that think we can ditch Xorg, not true even though I obviously would like it to be.

    The device you use every day.

    The origin is that your “daily driver” is your car for commuting to work, presumably to differentiate it from your sports car or farm truck.
