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.

    Been using arch + sway + neovim for 5 years now. Everyone says it’s the “I spend more time fucking with configs than getting work done” setup but then why does my dotfiles repo look like this?

    Wow, I've been using Linux Mint for 5 years. I don't have nor do I need a dotfile repo.

    Big "I don't even think of you" energy. I'm here for it.

    Lmao

    ... But... What is a dot file repo? I just want to play games and do homework.

    [–] traches@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

    Neither do I, but it’s nice to have the same settings on my desktop and laptop

    If you use vim and/or tmux you'll commit a lot to your dotfiles initially, but after you reach a stable configuration that you like you won't be changing much

    I don't use vim nor do I use tmux.

    If you don't use software that needs configuration then you don't need dotfiles
