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 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!

    These days, you probably won't need all that tweaking.

    I'd recommend Linux Mint.

    Honestly Debian would be a better choice if you want a rock solid stable experience.

    True that. However, Linux Mint may have a better out-of-box experience.

    Note: Debian is my favorite distro.

    Linux Mint Debian Edition looks like a common ground for you two ;)

    Unless you're using nvidia :')

    ... which is why I'm still on Ubuntu. Debian was my first love with Linux. Still have it on a ton of servers. Also have a weird USB video card (Display Link) for my 4th monitor. So I don't feel like switching, everything just works RN. If I was to jump, it'd be for Nix and all it's new hotness.

    Fedora with Cinnamon desktop has been gooood to me. Admittedly it's on a Thinkpad

    Isn't Linux Mint just green Ubuntu?
