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!

    I don't mind Wayland but I sure hope flatpack will not become the default way to distribute packages. Most packages I tried so far didn't work. I just avoid it now.

    That's strange? I've never come across a single broken Flatpak across multiple computers with Linux installed. Do you have examples of broken Flatpaks?

    Nope, I don't remember and after it happened couple of times I just started avoiding it.

    I don't have examples but can confirm that mamy flatpaks don't work out of the box. chromium and brave browser for me crash after a few seconds

    I don't use it at all, I just repackage stuff that I need for my distro's package manager... if they're not in the repos.
