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!

    Linux Mint should be the default answer for newbies. Tech savvy users can probably find "the right distro" themselves.

    But not only for newbies, just to add.

    Yeah, I used Linux Mint when I started using Linux in 2021, and I would definitely still use it if I didn't prefer rolling release.

    What does rolling release get a user if they're not tinkering with hardware all the time?

    [–] callyral@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

    To me? I use a laptop and don't really tinker with my hardware at all, the benefits for me is I get the latest-ish versions of software (including user applications), and there isn't this big jump between new versions
