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 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.
  • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 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.
  • 5. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง Language/ัะทั‹ะบ/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • ย 

    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 remove France.

    My first lemmy account was on an instance called iusearchlinux.fyi then it just disappeared suddenly and without explanation (admin probably burnt out). Anyway, it was nice to be able to tell people i use arch linux without actually having to tell them. I miss that instance

    The server it ran on crashed after an update, and the wiki doesn't mention recovery of a lemmy instance.

    I'm using CachyOS which is based on Arch btw.

    I tried it but TF2 wouldn't launch so I switched to Ubuntu.

    If a user doesnโ€™t learn how to manage nvidia proprietary drivers on arch, they probably are in a better home at ubuntu

    Assuming that this was the problemโ€ฆ

    I installed TF2 on a Mac with only integrated graphics in college and played a ten to twelve FPS slideshow for years.

    It was Debian as well.

    I've been playing it on and off since launch and never got less than 60fps ๐Ÿ˜…, but generally around 120fps as I had a 3d vision monitor(that didn't work so well in source games though iirc).

    didn't get as far as seeing a framerate in arch, couldn't work out why it wasn't working and gave up ๐Ÿ˜…

    haven't checked my framerate in Ubuntu but felt like about 144 or something like that
