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!


    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    I run Debian on my work laptops, and Arch on my gaming rig. They are absolutely equal in terms of time sink, and it's not that bad at all.

    Can totally agree. Debian & Arch are totally equal in terms of stability. Any Linux os can be unstable, it really all depends on how the user uses it....

    Yeah, if it's unstable, they're probably holding it wrong

    By Arch, do you use SteamOS on your gaming rig? And if not, what would be the determining factor?

    [–] balancedchaos@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

    I'll give SteamOS a shot when I get my Steamdeck. Until then, it's just vanilla Arch on my main machine until I've seen what it's like.
