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!

    did something happen? is plasma just windows now?

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Some people don't like that Plasma is usually (depending on the distro) offered with an aesthetic that reminds to windows, so it's easier for newbies.

    For me that's a plus. I like that layout, which Windows also slowly starts to move away from now.
    I think Windows more and more looks like a Plasma desktop though, like visually. That process is not super new and somewhat gradual over the versions but it is noticeable. There's also some desktop features that made its way into Linux that felt very close to some that are present in Linux for many years.

    Exactly! I think Nicco Loves Linux (from KDE) mentions it in some video
