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 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. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • 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 figuresWe 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.
    •  

    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.

    Nah it's really not convenient when it comes to things like banking apps that get fussy about how customised your phone is. It's fine most of the time but you're going to be running into issues at inconvenient times when you don't really have the time to sit and play. Although I'm also talking a couple of years ago now, chances are things have improved.

    disabling javascript

    Yeah you're basically breaking everything. I did this before it was chic when I had a Nokia phone running Opera Mini lmao.

    I don't trust banking apps, and I have absolutely no desire to install software that is so controlling.

    Yeah you're basically breaking everything.

    Sites which are non-functional without javascript are already "broken" in my view. So I simply don't use them.

    I did this before it was chic

    Is it though? Most people tend to try to talk me out of it. There seem to be lots of people who view it as unacceptable, and I've actually been bullied about it on a few occasions by people whom I'd thought were friends. I've learned to be defensive as a result, but that can come across the wrong way sometimes. I'd certainly rather it be chic than what it currently is, though I'm glad the comments in this thread have remained civil and generally positive.

    (I spent a long time typing that last paragraph and debating about whether or not to include it in this comment. Hopefully it's fine.)

    My impression was that the OP was about disabling javascript. I've also had issues with banking apps on CalyxOS and iodéOS, but overall could be worse
