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!

    Re-creation of someone else's post because the original was removed and I found it funny when I first saw it

    If the original was removed, there's probably a reason.

    This "meme" chooses the dumbest reasons Linux is better when there are so many other options than "updates" and "old app"

    It's yet another "Linux good, other OS bad" meme, which is by far my least favorite kind of Linux meme

    The reason the original was removed can be found at https://www.kevinswildlife.com/modlog/1016 by searching for the user "Kaped". Apparently it was because that user broke the rules regarding "No bigotry" and "Be respectful" on https://lemmy.ml/ and a mod wanted to "remove content".

    I doubt those reasons were actually related to the post this one copies, as it doesn't seem bigoted, and probably isn't much less respectful than other [email protected] content.

    Also, memes can still be memes while being dumb. Unsophisticated stuff can also be funny! Perhaps fart jokes and other body humor are examples of this.
