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!

    If you talk shit instead of genuinely having trouble with something, any hobby group will not take it lightly. There's honestly trying and coming up empty, and then there's the "I don't have to put so much effort on other platform X" kind of response that indicates you are just trying to trash talk.

    My general rule is that i shouldn't spend more energy than the person asking for help because there are people that call for help not because they are unable to solve the thing on their own, but because they rather someone else did everything for them.

    That was the reason I lost my job as an A&E doctor

    Such a simple concept. It's surprising the number of people who don't recognize this, then invariably go on to talk about how "toxic" the community was to them for "just asking a question."
