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.
  • 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.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • 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.
  • Β

    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.

    LTT needs Emily back in front of the camera to provide a proper Linux perspective.

    People probably know Anthony. They are the same person.

    I know people know "Anthony;" I was just uncertain of the appropriateness of mentioning that name.

    Also, LOL at this comment on the video:

    Oh thank god. I thought you were going to say you started using Windows.

    I pretty much stopped watching after Emily stopped being on camera and unsubbed entirely after the harassment and overworking allegations came out.

    And I'm not even a Linux person 99% of the time! I do run a home server, but my daily driver is windows. Emily was just one of the only people on the channel that not only seemed to know exactly what she was talking about, but also didn't behave like a total tech dude bro the entire time

    Emily left a couple months ago

    [–] Kecessa 11 points 2 days ago

    Did she mention why? I was expecting her to start doing videos again at some point...

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

    Yes. That's literally what they said

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

    No, I knew she had stopped being on-camera and switched to being a writer only (I assumed temporarily until she felt comfortable/confident post-transition), but I had no idea that she more recently quit LTT entirely. @Player2's comment was news to me!

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

    not exactly. she was always primarily a writer at LTT

    [–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    Needed to search who Emily is. I was totally out of the loop.

    Yeah she was the best.

    [–] [email protected] 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    Sorry about that. I don't know the right way to reference a trans person who was famous under their former identity but not their real one.

    [–] [email protected] 31 points 2 days ago

    Me neither, I think the best approach is to use the new identity always, if the person is interested they can search for it.

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

    I miss Emily. She was amazing.
