Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- 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 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 of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
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.
5. ๐ฌ๐ง Language/ัะทัะบ/Sprache
- This is primarily an English-speaking community. ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฆ๐บ๐บ๐ธ
- Comments written in other languages are allowed.
- The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
- Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
- Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
- We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
- Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
ย
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 remove France.

Sir, this is a meme community.
"it's a meme"
No it's not, it's a screenshot of a confusing exchange.
not even particularly confusing, it's just two inexperienced users being inexperienced. it seems like it's only confusing people that know OpenOffice and LibreOffice have OS X versions but somehow don't know that not everyone knows what they're doing.
It is confusing to me because A) what's funny or interesting about this? B) how would one possibly know about libre office and not even know how to check if there's an osx version. Any idiot should be able to figure that out in moments.
But mostly A.
You're a confusing exchange.
That may be true also, but no one posted me with the caption "lmao"

The meme isn't very good though

It's ok, hun
No this is one *nix community trying to stir shit with another *nix community. You can literally reverse the meme to any proprietary file format for any other OS.
You can install libreoffice using the nix package manager, but im unsure how this is relevant
But.. it's not proprietary. The devs could just... read the spec and implement it. It's probably even easier than that if there are libraries to help.
Sir, this is a meme community.
Iโm going to need to see some ID son
ODT?
Just going to drop this here, I feel like you may appreciate it:
