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!

    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.

    would love to see some actual market research on this. sit down a sample of users, have them install then use some OSs. interview them on their experience. rather than yknow making up data

    [–] mr_right@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 4 days ago

    well people dont actually install OSs

    [–] nossaquesapao@lemmy.eco.br 4 points 4 days ago

    Even better if made with multiple ussr groups, including tech-savy and people who never installed an os before, as well as people already used to windows and linux.

    i was on a instance called kbin.cafe after fedia.io moved to mbin, for no reason. did it turn into a lemmy instance without redirect?

    [–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    no i don’t think so, probably just a coincidence. i have never used kbin or mbin

    Not data, It's a meme

    [–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    the only thing cooler than a meme with fake data is a meme with real data

    [–] Homescool@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    So, a chart?

    ~~Uuh yeah that can't be right. The US isn't even 20% of the world population, how can their prisons have even more people than that?~~

    Edit: never mind, I didn't read properly

    [–] snekmuffin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

    no, you read that correctly, theres currently 2 billion people in the US prisons :p
