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, 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.

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.

I haven't watched LTT for quite a while. A lot of his videos entertained me, but the guy himself...
His recent video on the Fairphone is what did it for me.
His "deal breaker" is that the notification sound is too loud? Replacing a battery by heating up your phone, prying it open, disconnecting the flimsy battery cable and prying out the glued in battery is apparently just as easy as using your hands. Seriously?
Personal preferences exist you know. Also not being able to turn down the notification volume would annoy me personally to no end. But if it doesn't annoy you, is it still unimportant to be informed about this? So you know before you buy?
Calling something that can be fixed with a simple software update a deal breaker is strange to me, yes.
Adding it as critique so it can be fixed is fair, as a reviewer I expect them to note things like these. I do not need them to add their own opinion on whether this is a deal breaker or not.
I find opinions to be interesting and somewhat informative. I dont agree personally, but appreciate the input. If you view it as an opinion I think its okay. Everyone adds their personal opinion in one way or another, I think its good that its labeled that way.
His fairphone review was super based. Refusing to pander to deluded fanboys that are willing to pay $500 for a buggy pile of junk where the touchscreen software is broken.
