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 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.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • 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.
  • Β

    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.

    My reason for choosing openSUSE was admittedly shallow but I'm here to represent our team!

    I unironically have several folks around who've moved over to OpenSUSE after me.

    Criminally underrated, now if only they could get the board in order...

    I have a perception based mainly on a feeling, but is it true that the opensuse community is mainly Suse employees actually deciding what happens?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

    Not exactly.

    There is very much a symbiotic relationship between the company and the community, even if the latter is more an oblique blob of FOSS projects.

    You can get a smidge of insight by having a looksie here:

    That was an interesting read. I am even more confused about the community part. When Debian switched to systemd it was a very... lively public discussion with lots of people stating their opinions. It seems to me like the opensuse world is different.

    I’m a happy OpenSUSE user, but is there a mrs. Chad I can be instead? :)
