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.

    With all the Ubuntu bashing. It's the only Linux image I have used for my server. Also used Kali and a bunch of others on an old laptop.

    Is Ubuntu server bad or does it just hold your hand too much. I have everything running in docker and manage that from a web gui.

    It's not that it's bad on a server, it's just that something like Debian with a couple tools on top gets you to the same place with less resources.

    For a home server, that reduction in overhead can mean squeezing out a few more services on a single box.

    Last time I used Ubuntu Server I was annoyed by those ads for some weird canonical subscriptions. Now I use Fedora ofc.

    Anyone who bashes distros hasn't really understood Linux. The fact that you can choose gives us the ability to choose the right tool for the job. Ubuntu has pushed a few weird things into the Linux world, but the distro itself is still legit.

    Ubuntu and Kali are both just flavors of Debian though. Need RHEL logo on a corporate middle manager desk chair.

    NixOS is just a hardware store
