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.

    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.

    Yes, I'm an Nvidia user on Ubuntu (soon to switch to something else I think). The issue is the drivers on Wayland suck. Routine screen tearing with dual monitors (even if the second one is disabled in GNOME Settings). It also gives me issues with hardware acceleration for OBS captures. Had I been planning ahead I would've gone with AMD, but I got the 3070 for a great price during the shortages so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    Edit: to be clear, it's fine and usable with one monitor, but still annoying. Switching to X11 gives me a whole different set of issues that just isn't worth the tradeoffs. I still play games with no fuss with one monitor, it just sucks that I have framerate issues running OBS at 1080p30 capture with a 3070
