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!

    obviously lots of these "just work" for most people.

    Exactly. They just work. I've only used PulseAudio and Pipewire recently, but both of them just worked. It was maybe 10-15 years ago, when I had troubles with sound on Linux. Or with anything at all, really.

    But that's also true that I'm not trying to build my own OS by using Gentoo or Arch or Linux from Scratch. I've been using Manjaro, because it's not bloated, yet it has everything I need, and it just works.

    I have only really used upstream distros (specifically what I've used is debian, open suse, Arch, Gentoo, and nixOS). I've never had audio issues, except when I first started using Gentoo, as I was missing some compile flags.

    That being said I only started using Linux 3 years ago.
