2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I just wish the lead person wasn't you know... Only reason I'm on KDE.

    I'm on sway for the same reason.

    cryptofash that hides behind free speech and allows nazis and that to post in the discord and banned a trans person that called out the messages by those users for "inciting arguments" and repeatedly misgendered them then went on about how they're not bigoted they just believe in free speech and blamed the user and pretending they were the victim and then when people said they should have a code of conduct he said doing that was just a hassle and how it would make it impossible to do lead dev stuff for him to enforce the rules while saying they have rules against that sort of thing anyway so blatant doublespeak where he's saying he's moderating and everyone's lying but also if he had to moderate he'd be too busy to develop

    All sounds awful but I'm mostly confused as to why a software project needs a discord

    [–] LucidNightmare@lemm.ee 33 points 1 day ago

    I fucking hate Discord with a passion because of all the information basically being held behind a proprietary piece of software, so I downloaded Legcord to at least be able to join those communities without sacrificing my own privacy.

    Highly recommend it! I have a Fallout terminal theme, and actually enjoy using it for once knowing that the actual app is not installed on my computer. :)

    Adamant transphobe, but in that insidious way where they justify letting people get bullied in the Discord because their "not on anyone's side and value different opinions". A trans person in the Discord server was targeted by another member and intentionally misgendered repeatedly. They spent multiple blogs basically saying "people are snowflakes, we dont want an echo chamber". Like wtf. (IIRC, working off my memory since I read about it like 2 months ago)

    just don't vibe with it tbh. Can't explain in an objective way why though.

    [–] osprey821@lemm.ee 14 points 22 hours ago

    I absolutely love sway. It's everything I need, and nothing I don't. Just works for me

    Wayland is pretty darn great nowadays, hell I'm running KDE and got HDR on my desktop; haven't had any odd goings on since 2023 (though nvidia is still meh)

    Same. Intel ran it great, but Nvidia is still pretty bad about running Wayland.

    When the Steam Deck dropped I got an AMD GPU and it's close.to Intel levels of seamless. That's when I knew that Wayland is more than ready, Nvidia just still is not.

    They are called compositors, but they are not as good as X WMs IMO. I'm keeping an eye on them tho.

    It still bothers me how toxic the hyprland devs behaved last year. Keeping an eye on that too πŸ˜‰

    I was building a kiosk for my home assistant with my Raspberry Pi. It was very complicated to set up a cage compositor, set up XWayland, setup Chromium Wayland flags, libinput rules, and the touchscreen mapping still doesn’t work… am I missing something here? For X11 everything just works right out of the box…

    [–] veniasilente@lemm.ee 6 points 18 hours ago

    … am I missing something here?

    X11.

    Sounds like you're missing a DE

    Unless you have a real reason not to use X11, why not just use X11?
