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!

    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.

    Ok Discord bad. What's good?

    A wiki, documentation on their website(if they have one), a web forum that can be searched/indexed cached for later(instead of troubleshooting via discord. To me are the ideal solutions.

    1. Any of the issue tracking software (GitHub. JIRA, GitLab etc.)
    2. Any of the documentation software (readthedocs, GitHub wiki, Antora etc.)
    3. Any of the forum style software. Even a Lemmy community would be a million times better for this purpose than Discord.

    Discord is probably the best app to chat/call with your gaming buddies but it's a shit application for issue tracking and documentation.

    Revolt looks pretty promising. https://revolt.chat/

    Just wish they would do something like federate logins. I know with chat it doesn't make sense to federate everything, but logins would be a really huge selling factor.

    We don't need another chatroom. Discord works fine as a chatroom. It sucks as a forum. An altertative will not fix that at all.

    The fmhy community had to move away from revolt back to discord due to bugs I've heard
