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.
    •  

    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.

    You'll get to the point where you can't use windows anymore XD

    I had to troubleshoot some windows problems for family a bit back, and it was the worst x3

    [–] davad@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    I'm about at that point. I had to set up a Windows VM last year to do some testing. It was more of a struggle to install than I expected.

    I stopped using it regularly several years ago, then I come back to help someone install it and it took me more time than I want to admit to figure out how to make a local account that wasn't attached to a Microsoft cloud account.

    To be fair they make this harder almost by the day.

    [–] applemao@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

    By design. Soon ms won't allow you to even have the OS installed, it will only be internet accessible (no internet=no pc usage) so they can steal more data for free.

    [–] Bassman1805@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

    Joke's on me, I still have to use windows at work!

    [–] Vopyr@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    Nah, even a kid can handle Windows. But after becoming a Linux user, I don't even want to look at Windows, that's for sure.

    [–] LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

    A young enough kid can handle just about anything put in front of them at the same rate. When you are learning from zero there isn't a ton of difference.

    I mean early 2000s? Oh windows easier 100%. But today? Both are easy im different ways and to a child just starting out on computer it won't matter
