Sister communities:


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.

    My web browser gets the full 1900Mbps.

    I don't expect you to help me. The Linux community doesn't help, they just sit there and attack people, and then wonder why their OS gains 0.000001% market share every year.

    Also I didn't talk like a moron. I said Linux doesn't "just work", and the irony is that you refuse to help me fix something on linux that should "just work".

    My web browser gets the full 1900Mbps.

    And why you didn't mention such important detail in the beginning? "Steam on windows downloads faster than steam on linux" is much different from "browser on linux downloads faster than steam on linux".

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I did.

    I said Steam downloads slowly. Why would I make the distinction of Steam if I meant the entirety of the Linux OS?

    Also I changed to Manjaro and Steam still refuses to download quickly. So much for "just working".

    You did not.

    Why does Steam only download at 100Mbps max, when Windows downloads at 1500Mbps?

    You clearly said Windows, not Firefox

    Context matters. You're being disingenuous.

    I am literally using Linux right now. Busy spending all my hours trying to fix it and make it work.

    And I even attached a screenshot of the Linux desktop.

    It's clear that I'm saying that I'm spending hours fixing Linux to make Steam (on Linux) download at full speed, while (Steam on) Windows downloads at full speed.
