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!

    Well, its between allowing that and not using Linux at all so that is that. If I could get them to remeber a strong password, it would not be for PC login.

    What distro would you recommend? I was under the impression Ubuntu was furthest with UIs.

    I've found that OpenSuse Tumbleweed is better than both Ubuntu and Linux Mint.

    They set out to make a distro that is kept up to date perpetually instead of managing different versions.

    Ubuntu has turned to garbage in recent years because of canonical. It also looks more like mac than Windows.

    Try Linux Mint.

    Hmmm, I had mint for a little bit once. I don't remember having any issues with it which probably means it is good. Paradoxically it also made me forget about it somewhat.

    But I really have an urge to try NixOS for myself... And I don't really want to mess with my parents setup now.

    Yeah I can understand not wanting to mess with something that works
