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.

    It's so similarly pronounced to the SI prefix that it can also be 1000 Manjaros (files.catbox.moe)

    Packages delayed by a week or so is not "stable", in either sense of the word

    In fact, that can break things. Especially with AUR use

    They avoid releasing packages with outstanding bugs. So at least there's that.

    As for AUR... it's really not a standard for stability in any shape or form. Heck, if AUR packages really didn't work on Manjaro that would definitely improve its stability. 😄

    But that's really not proven (that they don't work). All the ones I tried worked fine. YMMV. A third of AUR packages are abandoned or have never been updated after being added. There is no quality bar beyond "some random person decided to add a package". I really don't think we should use the AUR as proof of anything.
