- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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.

You are really salty about this for someone who claims they don't care.
No-one is lording their superiority over you. You just have an inferiority complex because the majority has decided to prioritise different things from what you would choose. And when someone takes shots at people who think "their" idea of optimal is the one true solution, it hits a bit close to home.
Again, stop saying you, I'm right there with you at the terminal, I'm just not dumb enough to think we can or should bring everyone else up here.
And why the fuck would I think those users having the OS hold their hands are the smart ones? The whole point is that dumb people should get to use computers, too.
I don't care as long as the other party doesn't care as well.
It litelarly is more optimal... faster, better... fuck, I'm not gonna quote Daft Punk ๐.
Not trying to bring them over to the dark side. Just don't say it's "drrrr ๐คช" when you obviously have no idea what you're talking about.
They should, I completely agree... but they should know their place, just like I know mine. I don't pretend I'm a dev just because I wrote a few stupid apps and open a few PRs here and there. I'm a geek, that's all.
I'm starting to think you are exactly the elitist gatekeeper the original meme was aimed at.
Close to home? More like bullseye.
You're even defending your optimal as if your circumstance were the only one that counts.
But it literaly IS more optimal... how hard is that to grasp.
My point was, do whatever you want, just don't make fun of those that actually do stuff the way they were intended to be done in the first place. Use a GUI, hell use an AI for all I care, it's your computer, not mine ๐คท.
Not if you're incapable of learning it... A hammer is optimal for a nail, doesn't mean you should use it as a saw. How hard is that to grasp?
And my point is, you're a snowflake who can't take a joke. The original meme can be interpreted hurtfully, but you have to choose to do so by giving it way more weight than you ever should a meme.
Well, I know one thing, I'm a lot less of a snowflake than a lot of people here are.
Yeah, all-in-all, your contributions are great. Doesn't mean you shouldn't be told off for getting vindictive.
And if you wanted to take a swing at me, something like "at least I'm not a care-bear" would have worked better.
Shit... I just realized I was talking to a mod that maintains half the Fediverse ๐.
Yeah, that is a good comeback ๐. I'm not that good EQ wise to be honest, but I try ๐.
