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.

    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.

    MacOS had that feature for a long time, it's pretty intuitive. I've never heard of someone thinking it's a bug despite MacOS being very mainstream nowadays

    We clearly live in different bubbles because this is the first time I've seen someone refer to MacOS as "very mainstream". iOS, sure, but I haven't seen many Macs out in the wild. It's certainly not common to the point where people would expect MacOS behaviour as the default.

    MacOS has 25% market share for desktop operating systems in the United States. That counts as mainstream to me

    [–] ahornsirup@feddit.org 7 points 1 month ago

    Around 15% here in Germany. That's more than I expected, but it isn't mainstream. At least not in the sense that people will expect MacOS behaviour by default on their computers, or even to the point where you can expect familiarity with MacOS from most users.

    Personally I'm going to have to agree with them as well I installed Kde recently and this exact feature I thought was a bug. When digging around on Google for about 15 minutes before realizing it was a feature I had to turn off.
